Rather than handing someone a fish sandwich, wouldn’t the process be optimized if you could give someone directions to the fishing hole, a rod and reel, and a recipe for cooking the fish? Microsoft Blueprints lets you do just that – it is a system for delivering everything from a Word Document to a Project template to an entire solution. Need to give someone step-by-step instructions for processes? How about twenty people? Blueprints enables you to mass communicate workflows, libraries, snippets… you build the Blueprint, it will handle the rest. The presentation will focus on dynamically building a Blueprint from start to deployment.
