SharePoint Intranet in Northampton
Building an intranet on SharePoint for Northampton organisations. These succeed or fail on ownership rather than design — an intranet launched with enthusiasm and no named owner per section contains eighteen-month-old announcements and a staff handbook two versions behind within a year, and people stop looking.
Why this comes up
The problem
Policies, forms and announcements are scattered across email, network drives and a previous intranet nobody maintains, and staff ask colleagues rather than searching.
What you get
What we deliver
- Structure built around what staff need to find, not the organisation chart
- An owner named for every section, with review dates attached to content
- Search configured properly, since it is how most people will actually navigate
- Documents given a single authoritative location rather than copies everywhere
- Permissions kept simple, as complex inheritance becomes unmaintainable
- Mobile access considered, particularly where staff are not desk-based

Working in Northampton
East Midlands
Northampton sits at the centre of the UK's distribution network, and warehousing and logistics operators here tend to need stock, routing and fulfilment systems that talk to whatever the client's customers already use.
Warehousing and distribution work leads here: stock accuracy, routing, proof of delivery, and portals that let customers see their own inventory without phoning in.

SharePoint Intranet in Northampton — common questions
- Why do intranets go stale?
- Because content has no owner. Launch enthusiasm produces a full site, then the people who wrote pages move on and nobody has authority to update or remove anything. Naming an owner per section, with a review date on each page, is the difference between a resource and an archive.
- How should it be organised?
- Around tasks. Staff look for how to book leave, which form to use, what the policy says — not for the department that owns it. Structuring by organisation chart is intuitive to write and consistently fails the people using it.
- How does this relate to Teams?
- They serve different purposes and overlap confusingly. Teams is for conversation and active collaboration; the intranet is for stable, published, authoritative content. Deciding which belongs where, and saying so, prevents both becoming half-populated duplicates.
- What about staff without desks?
- They are frequently the majority and usually an afterthought. Frontline staff reach the intranet on a phone if at all, and an intranet designed for a desktop browser excludes exactly the people who most need quick access to policies and forms.
- Do you work with businesses across Northamptonshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Northampton and the surrounding Northamptonshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Northampton businesses do you usually work with?
- Warehousing and distribution work leads here: stock accuracy, routing, proof of delivery, and portals that let customers see their own inventory without phoning in. Beyond that we work across Logistics & Distribution, Footwear & Leather, Motorsport, Financial Services and Retail.
- Do you cover the areas around Northampton?
- Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Milton Keynes, Leicester, Coventry, Cambridge. Northampton is an urban area of roughly 245,000+, and we take on work across the wider Northamptonshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
