Sr Project Manager to navigate gating process for a SharePoint implementation

Our valued Public Sector client requires a Senior Project Manager to navigate gating process for a SharePoint implementation. 

Today, our client uses various tools to house their corporate records and information.  With the implementation of M365 to provide virtual meetings, chat, email services, etc, there is an opportunity to pivot away from GCdocs and to choose to leverage M365 SharePoint as a single enterprise corporate repository with a time line of full implementation by September 2022. 
 
The project received official endorsement in November 2021 and a great deal of work has already been completed since then. This work must be completed as a project and will be subject to project management oversight and must navigate the gating process. The project’s scope includes the establishment of SharePoint as an enterprise repository with the requisite record keeping features and functions, as well as the identification of potential migration paths for existing repositories to move into the SharePoint if deemed to be a requirement by clients.   The bulk of this work is anticipated to be complete by fall 2022.
