You have 6 months to design, build and deliver an Intranet based on SharePoint 2013 for a dynamic marketing company. You can only employ three people. Which three would you  choose from the list below, and why ? You may give several answers, for different assumptions 🙂
- SharePoint Architect
- SharePoint Consultant
- Project Manager
- Business Analyst
- SharePoint Developer (Heavy on code)
- SharePoint Developer (Heavy on OOTB or third party tools)
- SharePoint Administrator
- Web Developer heavy on Javascript, CSS, graphics design
- SQL Administrator
Win-an-eBook Wednesdays is a small three day contest that we hold every week. The Prize? An O’reilly eBook for your choice! Furthermore, if you win, you also get the chance to ask the community whatever question you want and be the judge for next week’s contest!
This week’s judge is Peter Ridgway-Davies winner of last week’s contest!
You have until Sunday, May 12th (10pm GMT) to answer this question!
Obviously, the answer is … it depends! However, I am guessing thats why you left it kind of open. For a project that’s “run of the mill” SharePoint, and doesn’t require custom development, I would user :
- Business Analyst … talk to the business and find out exactly what they want. This person can also double up as a tester and trainer!
- SharePoint Administrator … build the platform and plumb the workings of SharePoint
- SharePoint Developer (heavy on OOB or third party tools) … This assumes that some front end development is needed.
I am not sure you could do the project without these 3 ? Maybe the question would be better with 4 ?
