What:

Learn from your peers how you can meet your information management challenges with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007). MOSS 2007 is now included in the recently re-signed Microsoft NHS Enterprise Agreement with NHS CFH, bringing significant benefits to the NHS.

It will allow you to:

• Increase productivity by simplifying the entire document management lifecycle from creation, collaboration and modification right through to expiry into a fully auditable records management environment.

• Reduce the internal administrative burden by creating rich online forms with powerful workflow to easily manage the approval process whilst at the same time automatically generating management reports.

• Simplify the life of your managers by empowering them to create, track and manage KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) directly from your corporate portal.
