Microsoft Office 365 at the Voluntary Fire Department
Overview of the Project
The fire department association of the voluntary fire department of Saarbrücken relied in the past on a mix of different communication tools to organize collaboration between volunteers. Private email accounts, Dropbox and WhatsApp dominated communication, but they could not meet the requirements of a centrally controlled infrastructure. In order for the almost 750 volunteers to be able to concentrate fully on their deployment, the fire department association relied on Microsoft Office 365 and especially SharePoint Online with the aim of ensuring fast, easy and secure collaboration across departments.
Microsoft Office 365 provides special implementation options tailored to non-profit organizations and integrates modern communication and productivity tools. Office 365 replaces numerous stand-alone solutions for the fire department association while ensuring a lean and uniform IT infrastructure at the same time. Documents can now be provided centrally on SharePoint, the email ping pong has been reduced and information is available to all helpers at any time and from any location.
With Microsoft Office 365, the Saarbrücken voluntary fire department association has a unified communication platform at its disposal that sustainably improves interdisciplinary collaboration between the voluntary rescue services.
