Overview

Description

 

This project will replace the legacy committee intranet application with a solution based on a centrally-supported platform. It is required as a dependency of the web hosting rationalisation project (COM014), as the existing intranets are hosted on the same infrastructure. Aside from the requirement to migrate from the current platform, there are advantages to moving to a new solution based on a centrally supported platform (standard supported platform, SLAs for data backup and recovery, scheduled application upgrades).
