Site Collection Design - Identify the Current State

=Current State=

This activity needs to ascertain the current state, i.e. what if any systems are being used now that will be impacted through the introduction of SharePoint Team Sites. The purpose of this activity is to start to get to grips with what will be involved in translating the current state into the future state (i.e. SharePoint Team Sites).
 * Assess the current tools used for collaboration by the business group e.g. Insight, Documentum, eRooms, SharePoint etc
 * Determine the folder structure of the current tools being used and how these are navigated/searched
 * Understand the policies/practices around permissions and access to data
 * Identify and capture if any business process have workflow and/or information management dependencies that will be impacted by adoption of SharePoint
