A growing business, ready for its next chapter
Model Remodel had built a reputation on sustainable practices and award-winning craftsmanship — and an on-prem file server that had simply grown alongside them, year after year. As the company expanded, it was time for the systems behind the scenes to match the quality of the work in front of clients.
What the project had to deliver
Model Remodel holds every job site to one standard: built to last. The digital environment needed to meet that same bar — a lasting foundation, not a quick fix.
How we got there
Six phases, run iteratively with the Model Remodel team rather than a single big-bang cutover.
|
PHASE 01
Discovery
Surface-level review of configuration, storage, and existing sites, followed by a deep dive into security posture relative to actual business risk.
|
PHASE 02
Assessment
Scoped the project, built the timeline and estimates, and flagged remediation items — empty items, invalid naming, the usual cleanup.
|
PHASE 03
Preparation
Remediated flagged content, applied configuration changes, and set a site-by-site launch schedule using Microsoft's Migration Manager.
|
|
PHASE 04
SharePoint Build
Designed and built the site architecture, paired with a governance plan so the structure holds up as the company keeps growing.
|
PHASE 05
Content Migration
Moved content in an iterative process, with regular checkpoints alongside the Model Remodel team.
|
PHASE 06
Training & Support
Delivered training, SOPs, and reference materials, then stayed engaged with the same weekly-touchpoint rhythm Model Remodel gives its own clients on-site.
|
Built to last, not just to launch
Model Remodel ended up with a SharePoint environment that's actually usable — content accessible without the VPN dance, proper security boundaries, and a structure that supports collaboration instead of working against it.
The automation work cut down on duplicated effort, and the governance plan gives them a foundation built the way they build everything else: to hold up under real use, year after year.
