SharePoint for Software Development Firms

Yes. SharePoint Maven has worked with software development consultancies, SaaS companies, and digital product teams. The work spans client deliverables, organization, security, and compliance documentation libraries, engineering knowledge bases, and admin training for operations and IT staff.

Engineering documentation often lives in those tools by preference, and SharePoint isn’t trying to replace them. SharePoint typically handles the non-engineering side of a software firm – client deliverables, contracts, security and compliance documents, HR and operations, MSA/SOW retention. SharePoint Maven helps you draw that boundary clearly during scoping.

Yes. SharePoint excels at organizing documentation across many clients and projects at once. With consistent metadata – client, project, document type, status – you can store everything in structured libraries and filter to exactly what you need, instead of duplicating folder trees per client. The same document can surface under multiple views, so teams find what they need fast without hunting through nested folders.

Yes. SharePoint document libraries can hold a current evidence pack — security policies, SOC 2 reports, certifications, and architecture documents – that sales engineers and trust teams pull from when responding to customer questionnaires. Centralizing this content cuts questionnaire response time substantially.

No. SharePoint complements project management, product, and engineering platforms – it handles the document side of the business (client deliverables, contracts, policies, compliance), not the active project workflows. Active sprints, tickets, and product specs typically stay in Jira, Linear, GitHub, or wherever your engineering team already works.

SharePoint Maven uses the same fixed-fee pricing across every industry. Hourly consulting is $350/hour with no minimum. SharePoint intranets are $4,800-$6,400, fixed-fee. Document management projects are $2,400-$4,200, fixed-fee. Live training is $950 per 2-hour session with unlimited attendees. Pricing is flat and published – no proposal negotiation cycle.

Intranet projects typically run 5–8 weeks from kickoff to delivered training. Document management projects run 3–4 weeks. Hourly consulting can start within one week of purchase. Timelines are agreed up front and don’t slip – fixed-fee means no mid-project change orders or scope additions.

Greg Zelfond does every engagement personally. There are no subcontractors, junior consultants, or offshore teams. You work directly with Greg from the first call through delivery and training. Because of that, SharePoint Maven runs roughly one engagement at a time – reach out a few weeks before your preferred start window to confirm availability.

Yes – that’s a primary design goal. Every project is built using out-of-the-box SharePoint features, with no custom code and no third-party tools, so your IT staff or site administrator can manage and extend the environment using the same admin tools that Microsoft documents publicly. Every project includes both admin training and site owner training.

Yes. Live training sessions ($950 per 2-hour session, unlimited attendees) can be booked as part of a rollout to train staff or administrators. On-demand SharePoint Maven Academy courses ($60 each, with volume licensing for teams) work well for ongoing onboarding as new people join. Both options are taught by Greg personally.
