Case Study: How SharePoint Templates Saved Time & Increased ROI for One of Our Clients

One of our mid-sized clients came to us with a common challenge an outdated intranet that was confusing, inconsistent, and nearly impossible for employees to use. Their internal team had spent months trying to redesign it manually, but progress was slow and adoption remained low.

After switching to SharePoint ready-made templates, the transformation was immediate:

• Intranet launched in 2 days instead of the originally planned 10–12 weeks

• 75% reduction in IT workload since most pages became self-managed by departments

• Employee search time dropped by 40%, thanks to optimized navigation and structured content

• HR reported saving 20+ hours/month simply by using the centralized resources hub

• The company saw a 3.8x ROI within the first quarter through time saved and better productivity

This small shift from custom building to template-driven design gave their employees a clean, intuitive experience while drastically reducing operational time and cost.
