Kennedy Ventures – Enterprise SharePoint Intranet

Kennedy Ventures Group operates through multiple business entities and requires coordination across several corporate departments and operating platforms.

The existing SharePoint environment had become difficult to manage, with extensive folder structures and an organization that did not fully reflect the company's evolving operational structure. The client wanted a cleaner, more scalable environment that would make departmental resources easier to access, improve document organization, and support future expansion without creating unnecessary complexity.

We worked with the client to understand the company's organizational structure, departmental responsibilities, document management requirements, and long-term expansion plans.

The discovery process focused on: - Understanding the relationship between shared services and operating companies. - Identifying the main departmental workspaces. - Reviewing existing document organization challenges. - Establishing a consistent approach to document libraries and metadata. - Planning a hub structure that could accommodate additional business entities. Based on these requirements, we developed an information architecture centered on a unified Kennedy Ventures Hub.

PSTUDIO WEB established the SharePoint hub structure and designed a centralized homepage to serve as the main entry point for the company's digital workspace.

The architecture included dedicated departmental spaces for: - Executive & Leadership - Finance & Accounting - HR & Compliance - IT & Systems - Legal & Corporate We also structured the document management environment around dedicated libraries rather than relying on deeply nested folders. Metadata fields and customized library views were introduced to help organize and categorize business documents more consistently.

The implementation was carried out using Microsoft SharePoint Online and Microsoft 365.

Key implementation activities included: - Configuring the Kennedy Ventures Hub. - Building the hub homepage and navigation. - Organizing departmental SharePoint sites. - Creating and configuring document libraries. - Setting up metadata columns for document classification. - Configuring customized library views. - Establishing a foundation for future departmental and operating-company expansion.

The delivered solution provides Kennedy Ventures Group with a centralized SharePoint environment organized around its corporate structure.

The platform includes a dedicated hub homepage, departmental navigation, structured document libraries, metadata-based organization, and customized document views. The architecture provides a more consistent approach to managing corporate information while creating room for additional business units and operational workspaces.

The project established a more organized foundation for Kennedy Ventures Group's internal digital operations.

Key outcomes include: - A centralized corporate SharePoint hub. - A clearer departmental navigation structure. - Dedicated workspaces for key business functions. - A standardized document library approach. - Metadata-based document classification. - Customized views for easier document browsing. - A scalable foundation for future operating-company workspaces. The completed work provides the organizational foundation for future enhancements and integrations with business systems such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Ramp. These integrations should be described as planned capabilities, not completed integrations.
