Migration of Content from Content Manager to SharePoint

How Al Basit Technology Solutions delivers it right

At Al Basit Technology Solutions, we help government, defense, and enterprise clients modernize their information platforms while maintaining security, compliance, and records. Many have legacy Content Manager systems that function but lack support for modern collaboration, remote access, and integrated security. Migrating to SharePoint is effective if governance guides the process. Here’s our approach.

Discovery before migration

We begin by analyzing your information, not choosing tools. In discovery, we:

  • Identify critical and regulated content
  • Eliminate outdated or redundant data
  • Assess metadata, retention, and access

This keeps SharePoint organized and ready for use immediately.

Metadata that works in the real world

Legacy systems normally use complex metadata that is difficult to transfer. We redesign metadata to:

  • Meet compliance and audit needs
  • Enhance search and findability
  • Align with current user workflows

This reduces friction and boosts adoption.

Secure, simplified access models

Security is enforced thoughtfully through:

  • Role-based access by department and function
  • Least-privilege principles
  • Clear ownership and accountability

These practices lower risk and simplify long-term management.

Records and retention built in

Records management is essential for regulated organizations. Our migrations maintain:

  • Retention and disposition rules
  • Enforceable legal holds and audit trails
  • Information governance that meets policies and regulations
  • Built-in compliance from the start

Validation, training, and confidence

Migration succeeds when users trust the platform. We validate content, security, and metadata, then drive adoption through:

  • Structured validation and sign-off
  • Clear user guidance
  • Knowledge transfer

This approach reduces disruption and quickly builds confidence.

Our perspective

Migrating from Content Manager to SharePoint is an information transformation that minimises risk, boosts compliance, and ensures secure collaboration.

That’s what Al Basit Technology Solutions provides.
