- Installation and configuration of Team Foundation Server as appropriate
- Configuration of training partitions on your servers
- Selection and mentoring on appropriate branching and security models
- Initial adoption training for affected roles
- Migration support of existing development artifacts into the version control environment

About Jumpstarts
Jumpstarts are engagements desiged to help you adopt a specific discipline, select processes and/or tools. For larger institutions, jumpstarts can help individual teams or pilot users with the desired adopton; for smaller organizations a jumpstart may be the basis for a full corporate implementation. Although the specific contents of jumpstarts vary, most include some amount of: discovery, implemention, and training. This may seem like a fair amount of work, but many individual jumpstarts can be completed within a few of days.
Jumpstarts are maleable and can be custom fit to your needs. It is possible to engage Notion for a single targeted jumpstart, however most companies with recognize economy of scale by combining multiple Jumpstarts together or with other Notion training or services. For more information on which jumpstarts are right for you, contact us for more information or to schedule an ALM workshop.
