Microsoft SharePoint 2016 A Complete Guide

Microsoft SharePoint 2016 is the backbone of enterprise collaboration, yet many organizations fail to align it with business objectives, resulting in wasted licenses, fragmented content, and security gaps. The platform's rich feature set, sites, workflows, document libraries, and integration points, delivers real value only when it is governed, measured, and continuously improved. Companies that lack a structured assessment often encounter costly rework, missed compliance deadlines, and low user adoption. The book follows a proven RDMAICS Self-Assessment methodology. Over hundreds of SharePoint-specific questions are grouped into the seven criteria: Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control, and Sustain. Readers assign a score of 1-5 to each item, and the scores generate a radar-chart Scorecard that instantly highlights the exact SharePoint 2016 domains that need attention. Even readers with limited SharePoint experience can quickly gauge maturity and prioritize actions. Included Professional Toolkit (40-48 Practitioner Tools): All tools are generated fresh at the time of purchase to reflect the latest SharePoint 2016 standards. The toolkit is organized into ten sections, Getting Started, Assessment and Planning, Models and Frameworks, Processes and Handoffs, Operations and Execution, Performance and KPIs, Quality and Compliance, Sustainment and Support, Advanced Topics, and Reference. It contains more than 30 deliverables in Excel, PDF, and Markdown formats, including maturity assessments, gap analyses, decision matrices, implementation roadmaps, stakeholder maps, process runbooks, KPI dashboard templates, risk matrices, audit checklists, quick reference cards, and detailed guidance. Each Excel file provides three sheets (Instructions, Template, Pro Tips & Common Mistakes); each PDF adds Pro Tips, Common Mistakes, and a Quick Reference section. All artifacts are built specifically for SharePoint 2016, not generic project templates. Every purchase includes Lifetime Updates. As SharePoint 2016 evolves, through service packs, security updates, and emerging governance practices, buyers receive refreshed content and updated toolkit files, ensuring that their assessment and implementation resources remain current and actionable. This guide is essential for IT Service Managers responsible for enterprise collaboration, SharePoint Administrators tasked with day-to-day governance, and Business Process Analysts who must align SharePoint capabilities with operational goals. It is also valuable for Compliance Officers who need a structured way to demonstrate adherence to internal policies and external regulations during SharePoint audits.
