Reduced Cost, Improved Efficiency & Enhanced Security through a Cloud Adoption program









Client Overview
A global leader with over 300,000 employees across more than 100 countries, our client is a premier Global Professional Services Firm. They empower businesses and individuals to reach their goals by leveraging human ingenuity, deep expertise and cutting edge technology, building trust and driving sustainable success.
As part of their cloud transformation, the client needed to modernize their ECM platform and migrate over 250 terabytes of data from Documentum to SharePoint Online and Azure File Storage. We successfully delivered this large-scale migration under tight deadlines by using Proventeq’s Migration Accelerator, which enabled high-speed transfers through parallel processing of multiple data instances.
Our team optimized the entire migration process through automation covering batching, provisioning, configuration and report generation. The Orchestrator module, part of our Migration Manager suite, streamlined the migration of Clients and Engagements by organizing them into activity-based batches.

Client Challenges
Complex document system
Our client had a complex and large volume of documents spread across their legacy system. They required a more structured document system to allow the flow of information across their business.
Expensive legacy system
Most legacy infrastructures are expensive to maintain with increased security risks and rising storage costs. The company needed to migrate to Microsoft's cost-effective and efficient storage platforms including SharePoint and Azure cloud.
Limited collaboration
& user experience
With the complexity of their content structure, it was difficult for users to navigate and find relevant information which hindered collaboration and
user experience.
Enhanced security
measures required
Our client needed a more secure system with advanced access controls and modern compliance features to help protect their valuable information and maintain data integrity.
Proventeq's Solution
Discovery & analysis
We performed a comprehensive data discovery of their complex system using our Content Insights tool to determine which high-value data needed to be migrated. Inconsistencies and errors across the system were identified and removed before migration.
Archiving inactive content
Our Content Archiver tool facilitates the transition of inactive content to Microsoft Azure Files Storage, ensuring the company's SharePoint Online storage stays optimized, clutter-free and cost-efficient.
Restructuring & IA optimization
The project also required restructuring and classifying our client's content flow to fit within SharePoint’s information architecture and align with the collaborative needs of modern teams, allowing users to easily access and
share documents.
Remodeling security & audit trail
Remodeling of security was carried out to enable modern security features such as robust encryption and role-based access controls in SharePoint. An item audit trail was implemented to ensure successful data migration, data protection and accountability.
