Project Objective

The objective of this project is to modernize and future-proof the enterprise collaboration and workflow platforms by upgrading K2, SharePoint, and underlying infrastructure across all environments (QA, DEV, PROD, and DR). This initiative will:

• Transition K2 Five 5.8.1 → 5.9 on Windows Server 2022 with SQL Server 2022 (AlwaysOn) for improved scalability, security, and supportability.

• Upgrade SharePoint 2019 → SharePoint Server Subscription Edition (SPSE), adopting Microsoft’s evergreen release model to ensure continuous feature and security updates.

• Migrate the standalone SharePoint 2016 Document Center farm → SPSE using the supported Database Attach Method, enabling consolidation and consistent user experience across farms.

• Establish full production and disaster recovery parity, with SQL AlwaysOn and VIP-based failover to strengthen resilience and business continuity.

• Standardize QA and DEV environments as simplified standalone setups to enable safe validation and pre-production testing.

The upgrade will follow a parallel side-by-side migration strategy, minimizing downtime, enabling rollback if needed, and ensuring clean configurations in line with Microsoft and Nintex best practices. This program will deliver a secure, stable, and supportable platform foundation for business processes, content management, and workflow automation.
