These sites allow organizations, departments, colleagues; and teams to create, manage and share data across Intranet or Extranet site – even with external partners.
SharePoint 2010 – Sites SharePoint 2010 Sites are fully integrated with Microsoft products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, etc.); and works well with other technologies, legacy programs and external data sources.

NATO Consultation Command and Control Agency NATO Agency Updates Website to Reflect Technology Expertise, Support Procurement The NATO Consultation, Command and Control Agency (NC3A) of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) needed to improve its website to better reflect its position as the core NATO technology provider.
