Introducing Microsoft Teams: Structure collaboration and increase productivity

From strategy and technical implementation to change management: everything from a single source.

Successfully introducing Microsoft Teams: More than just a rollout

Teams has been rolled out, but adoption is falling short of expectations? Channels are growing uncontrollably, governance is missing and employees continue to work the same way as before? 

For Microsoft Teams to deliver real value, employees need to understand and actively use the new possibilities, while your IT keeps structure, governance and lifecycle management under control. 

We support you in introducing and further developing Teams in a way that makes collaboration more transparent, helps information be found faster and enables your organization to use the platform productively.

Why many Teams implementations do not reach their full potential

Microsoft Teams is already in use in many companies. However, there is often a noticeable gap between technical rollout and productive usage.

Uncontrolled growth of teams and channels

Teams and channels are created without coordination, structures grow inconsistently and information becomes difficult to find. Without clear governance, it is easy to lose the overview.

Low adoption in everyday work

The technical setup is complete, but day-to-day work often stays the same. Without adoption and accompanying change management, Teams is only used to a limited extent.

Standalone tool instead of platform

Teams is often reduced to chat and meetings. Integration into processes, applications and collaboration scenarios is missing, and with it a large part of the added value.

How Microsoft Teams becomes the central platform for your company

To make sure Microsoft Teams creates real value in everyday work, we support you holistically during implementation. 

We analyze existing processes and structures, integrate Teams into your IT architecture and help you establish the platform sustainably within your organization.

  • Clear structures for teams and channels, consistent rules and clear naming conventions for all employees

  • Integration of business applications and processes directly into Teams, where collaboration happens in everyday work

  • Accompanying change management and tailored training so your employees adopt the new way of working

  • Provisioning, lifecycle management and central administration of all Teams environments by IT

How MS Teams becomes productively used in your company

To ensure that Microsoft Teams is truly used in everyday work, we combine technical implementation, change management and governance into one holistic approach.

Teams implementation & process integration

Not yet sure where and how Teams can support your company? We analyze your processes, your status quo and your entire IT architecture and use this as the basis for building a Teams environment that your employees will actually adopt.

Governance & provisioning

Without clear rules, Teams quickly becomes messy, and the system itself does not offer a comprehensive governance solution. We design and set up Teams governance and provisioning based on your individual requirements, so you can maintain overview and control.

Change Management & Adoption

New tools alone do not change the way people work. We make the transition as smooth as possible for your employees with accompanying change management, so that the new way of working is not only introduced, but also lived in your company.

Training & enablement

To make sure your employees feel confident and competent in the new environment, we provide tailored training based on the specific characteristics of your company, your requirements and your processes. On-site, remotely via online session or as a recording.

The novaCapta difference: Teams implementations that work

Certified Teams expertise

Three Microsoft Specializations in the areas of Custom Solutions, Meetings & Meeting Rooms and Adoption & Change Management. For projects that go beyond a purely technical rollout.

Strategy before configuration

Before we configure, we analyze processes, requirements and your IT landscape. This creates a Teams environment that supports the way you work and does more than just function technically.

Implementation with adoption

With structured change management and targeted training, Microsoft Teams is not only introduced in your company, but productively embedded in everyday work.

Frequently asked questions about Microsoft Teams implementation

What is part of a professional Teams implementation?

A successful implementation involves more than technical configuration. The strategy needs to go beyond setup and also include the right change and adoption measures as well as governance, so your employees adopt the tools and your IT can manage the new environment.

How long does a Teams implementation take?

That depends on the scope. We plan every implementation in phases, from analysis and piloting to company-wide rollout, so you can see initial results quickly and roll out step by step.

What can we do if Teams has already been rolled out but is not being used properly?

This is one of the most common starting points. We analyze current usage, identify governance gaps and adoption issues, and develop measures to improve usage sustainably, from cleaning up structures and defining new governance rules to targeted training.

Do we need novaWorxx for governance?

Not necessarily. Microsoft Teams offers standard governance functions that are sufficient for simple setups. For more complex requirements, such as templates, lifecycle management or automated provisioning, novaWorxx closes the gaps that the standard does not cover.

Can we also use Teams as a phone system?

Yes. Phone systems in M365 offer all the capabilities of a traditional business phone system, fully in the cloud and without complicated or expensive equipment.

Would you like to introduce Microsoft Teams?

My team and I look forward to your inquiry.
