How to Create a Successful SharePoint Governance Plan

ТОР S THINGS A SHAREPOINT GOVERNANCE PLAN SHOULD SOLVE 01 GROWTH: What content belongs on the site and what is the most appropriate place? Is the content ready to be published? Has ownership been taken and is someone responsible for the content additions? Is there a policy and procedure for this content and was that process followed? ALIGN USE 02 TO BUSINESS ОBJECTIVES: Is the problem being solved something you should actually be solving? Are you adding value to your company by solving it? 03 GLEARLY DEFINE THE INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE: Solution What problems should SharePoint be used to solve and which should it not? What alternatives should be considered instead? 04 AVOID ROADBLOCKS: While controls are needed, are they being implemented in a way that is too restrictive or discourages participation? CONTINUOUS 05 IMPROVEMENT: Realistically, there will never be a perfectly clean SharePoint system. However to ensure ongoing improvement, periodic cleanups and audits should be accepted policies. The goal should be to make the system as effective as it can be, given the time and resources available.
