A BRIGHTER BUSINESS

Sharepoint Consulting

Microsoft SharePoint can transform your business and help your teams get more done, from anywhere, in less time. Maybe you have the skills to  get your SharePoint site collection to really work, but do you have the time? Lightlever can work with you as needed to run the whole project or just fill in the gaps, support you, and train your users.

Lightlever has spent thousands of hours teaching people how to use SharePoint effectively, and we have a mania for finding the best way to do anything. This has helped us develop templates and methods to produce great business solutions, fast. Our consultants have the technical and communications skills to build SharePoint solutions that work for you. 

Use Lightlever for trustworthy, cost-effective SharePoint development, migration and training services.

Business Analysis

Your business is complex, but in order to simplify and streamline, you’ll need to draw information from different departments, get them to  agree on information flow and processes.lightlever is a specialist in this kind of facilitation, documentation, and presentation.

Isn’t it interesting that the Japanese character for “to divide” (分) also means “to understand”. This summarizes our view of problem solving: we divide your business problems (or opportunities)  into their component parts, so we can have focussed conversations with your staff and Management  to produce clear, well-understood solutions that everyone supports.

Our Principal Consultant, Gerry Brimacombe, has been an “efficiency nut” since childhood when he built tree houses with found materials — to save time and effort in sawing, the tree house was the size and shape of the boards he found. That passion for the easiest, fastest way to do things has carried into his various business, many successful projects, volunteer work, and SharePoint solutions that support efficient business processes.

Project Management

Your projects are important. Whether you’re installing a new information system or building a house, a well-managed project reduces your stress. Ensuring the team is engaged,  budget and schedule are met and scope is well managed  is what we do, primarily. And secondarily, as a result, we  make you look good .

Lightlever’s Principal Consultant, Gerry Brimacombe, has tens of thousands of hours managing projects over a 30-plus-year career. Project management  is fundamentally about people management, and Gerry is a people person. Gerry has a Graduate Certificate in Project Management and has taken the PMP prep course twice. He has chosen not to write the exam, but is in full possession of the knowledge and skills and has implemented PMOs.

The Gartner Group has reported that the number one reason for project failure, year after year, is poor communication. As an outstanding facilitator, solid communicator, and technology whiz, Gerry has the foundation to manage your projects well, reduce risk, and ensure on-time and on-budget delivery of the results you expected.

Gerry can help you build a project plan that works, and work that plan efficiently from initiation to close, onsite or offsite. We can set up a SharePoint site and teach the team how to share project files, task, calendars, contacts, etc., all of which improves project team communication and increases efficiency through all aspects of your project.
