Samenvatting

This thesis document is aimed at the development and implementation of a new storage system and process within several departments operating in the ICL Amfert facility. The departments are currently storing their data in two hard drives and wanted to migrate their information in a SharePoint environment because they are starting to experience more and more problems and issues with their everyday use and reliability of the current storage system and process. The main problems are the lack of structure within the department 's workspace and lack of standardization and organization of files, file names, and ways of work, and the current method of sharing files and documents through communication channels is very time-consuming and unreliable . 
To tackle these issues I performed research, literature study, and analysis on file naming, structure, sharing, and change management for the new environment and collected and analyzed all relevant and necessary information about the departments and their data storage and usage. Furthermore, I developed a change management strategy & framework which supports the change process and the employees ' integration by applying the relevant change approaches and steps and activities from the Implementation plan. The change management strategies and approaches ensure the successful implementation and integration of the change by following the established data structure, applying and regulating the use and application of the rules and guidelines, and minimizing or eliminating doubts and concerns of employees.
The results from all the research, methodology, and analysis is a final complete data model and structure for each department that is based on all the information collected and analyzed beforehand. To ensure and further improve the correct and accurate use of the data model, the departments are trained and informed of the rules & guidelines of the system and supported by the change management strategies and approaches that promote and explain the reasoning and benefits behind the changes. In conclusion, the data model and manuals represent the development of the new storage system and introduced standardization, consistency, and reliability within and across the departments.
