Introduction

NDA PROJECT is the largest producer and retailer of tobacco and smoke-free products, electronic devices and accessories, and related products. With 39 production facilities and 71,000 employees globally, they are working to build a future on a new category of smoke-free products.

Avenga accelerated our client’s digital transformation efforts with an ideated and implemented solution resulting in sophisticated workflow functionality, effective resource allocation, and overall business efficiency.

Challenge

After an unsuccessful cooperation with a previous vendor, the client sought a reliable technology partner capable of quality delivery of the Microsoft products suite, starting from an unbiased tech assessment up to gradual re-architecture and actual implementation, as well as refinements to the existing system. And it needed to be done quickly. They faced major performance issues and latency in their current setup, which was holding back operational efficiency across the organization:

As the custom SharePoint system is used company-wide to run the entire intranet across 180 countries, its poor performance jeopardized its delivery of services around the globe, together with its internal services.

Primarily, there was a strong need to stabilize their current environment, optimize it, and take full ownership of the SharePoint setup.

Solution

Environment

Our experts stabilized the client’s current environment in 6 months and optimized it. The team took full ownership of the SharePoint setup with a fully managed service as a solution.

Consulting

Avenga provided meticulous tech consulting, including a Microsoft 365 Information Architecture and a Microsoft 365 Migration Roadmap to facilitate robust yet flexible system capabilities.

Migration

At the development stage, our experts migrated the legacy infrastructure of the dated VM, which was no longer supported by Microsoft, to a new series which resulted in better performance, resilience, and scalability of the system.

Intranet solution

An intranet solution powered by a SharePoint On-Premise implementation was redesigned to effectuate a more modern UX. Backed services were optimized to perform better with growing data, resulting in a more modern-looking and faster solution overall.

Customization

Currently, the team is implementing SharePoint On-Premise with rich customizations to address the client's specific business needs and enhance their modern collaboration experience.

Low-code

Additionally, Avenga's team is now involved in implementing low-code business solutions within the Microsoft Power Platform, which is currently emerging as a replacement for SharePoint OnPremise Workflows and InfoPath in the client’s organization.

Results

By partnering with Avenga, our client has solved some critical issues, like speed and quality of collaboration, scalability, data-based decisions across multiple business processes, optimization, and product innovation.

The client benefits from a custom, highly configurable system, which reaches a 99,9% uptime. The system has data and performance integrity and server control that provides more sophisticated workflow functionality, effective resource allocation, and overall business efficiency.
