FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does the SharePoint template for Communications & PR include?

It includes the intranet landing page plus three supporting pages (news, department and contacts), with breaking banner for embargoes and the day’s media coverage, managing partner note highlighting newly won accounts, news wall segmented by unit: insight, craft and people and the remaining sections visible in the demo. Everything is built from native SharePoint Online web parts and adapted to your organisation during implementation.

Can I download or install this template directly?

No. This template is an AvantIT reference solution, not a downloadable file or a package to install. It is the starting point for an implementation project: our team adapts the structure, brand and content to your organisation and publishes the intranet in your Microsoft 365 tenant.

How much does it cost to implement this solution?

Implementation is an AvantIT service and the investment depends on scope: the number of sites and pages, the volume of content to migrate, integrations with other systems and the level of customisation. That is why there is no list price. After an initial conversation and scoping, we present a fixed proposal, with no commitment until then.

How long does implementation take?

An intranet based on a catalog reference solution usually goes live in 2 to 4 weeks, including branding, migration of essential content and editor training. Projects with several sites or more complex integrations can take longer; the timeline is part of the proposal.

How does this template keep competing client accounts apart?

The template is the agency’s communication layer; client accounts live in their own sites connected to this hub. During implementation we add an automatically provisioned client workspace template, with per-account permission groups, Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels for embargoed material and time-limited external sharing — so competing brands never share a space.

Can we use this template with our own brand?

Yes, that is how it works. The example uses the fictional brand Northlight Communications; during implementation we apply your colours, typography, logo and photography, and adapt sections and navigation to your organisation.
