Chupa Chups: Lotus Notes to SharePoint Migration
The problem
Chupa Chups, founded in 1958, is one of the world's most popular confectionary brands. Chupa Chups required a new portal to support business processes in manufacturing, distribution and management.
Together we explored:
- How can we migrate from the existing Lotus Notes platform?
- What capabilities would better suit Chupa Chups?
- How can we promote collaboration between 2000 employees?


Our solution
Raona engineers provided the optimal solution
- A collaborative portal using SharePoint 2007, utilising out-of-the-box features as much as possible.
- Customisation according to Chupa Chups' business needs and corporate image.
- A proof of concept was carried out to choose the best technologies to deploy inter-departmental applications, and a pilot was run before the full migration.
- A versatile document management system with powerful document search and indexing capabilities.
- Business processes involving senior managers are now driven successfully using customised workflows.
