The Scotch Whisky Association (SWA) helps the Scotch whisky industry stay current with marketing data and regulatory information around the world, 24 hours a day. SWA had outgrown its first extranet and wanted a solution that would be easier for its association members to navigate and swiftly find the information they needed.

Company Net developed a SharePoint Portal to provide wider access to SWA data, allowing registered members across the world to find information easily and collaborate on documents, reports and information.

It features a vast range of data and information, including industry data, market information.

This new system has been awarded TAP (Technology Adoption Programme) status by Microsoft and was showcased at the Worldwide Microsoft Partner Conference in Toronto for innovative use of SharePoint technologies to enhance collaborative working within a member based organisation.
