Case Study: Financial Services and Markets Authority achieves a seamless migration from Exchange Public Folders to SharePoint Online with Proventeq

Financial Services and Markets Authority migrates Exchange Public Folders to SharePoint Online with Proventeq, filtering out 25% of content

The Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) faced the complex challenge of migrating a vast amount of content from legacy Exchange Public Folders to SharePoint Online. A significant portion of the data required filtration and conversion, with issues including inconsistent metadata, unsupported file paths, and daily data modifications. Proventeq, working with its partner Sogeti, utilized its Migration Accelerator and Discovery tools to address these obstacles.

Proventeq implemented a rules-based solution that automated content filtration, converted email formats from EML to MSG, and remedied long file paths. This process ensured data was cleansed, standardized, and consistently synchronized during the phased migration for each department. The result was a successful, end-to-end migration that consolidated all metadata and ensured data quality and reliability within the new SharePoint environment, enabling FSMA to meet its tight deadline.
