SharePoint governance and migration
Migration is the move. Governance is what makes it work.
Safari Micro helps teams turn scattered file shares, legacy sites, and inconsistent permissions into a SharePoint operating model they can manage. We define the structure, responsibilities, and guardrails first—then plan the content move around that foundation.
Information Architecture
Site, hub, navigation, metadata, and content-structure design that makes information easier to find and manage.
Governance & Lifecycle
Ownership, provisioning, naming, review, retention, and lifecycle standards tailored to how your teams work.
Content Discovery & Migration Planning
Inventory, content analysis, migration waves, and validation criteria before production content moves.
Permissions & Sharing
Group-based access design, sharing guardrails, and permission alignment that support practical collaboration.
Teams, OneDrive & SharePoint Alignment
A clear operating model for where content belongs across Teams, personal OneDrive storage, and SharePoint sites.
Adoption & Admin Enablement
Administrator guidance, owner responsibilities, and end-user enablement to make the new environment sustainable.
SharePoint Governance Review
We will review your current content environment, collaboration goals, access model, and migration priorities to outline a practical next step.
