Organizations choose SharePoint as an enterprise collaboration, productivity, insight and analysis platform in order to drive business value. If SharePoint is a lever, then governance directs the force placed on that lever to achieve maximum leverage. In this white paper, “The SharePoint Site Governance Lifecycle Model,” Perficient introduces the five stages of its SharePoint Governance Lifecycle model.
The white paper describes a simple process model for how we approach a certain topic in the SharePoint world: site governance. “Site” refers to one of the central organizing elements of the SharePoint platform: the site. “Governance” refers to a set of policies, principles, processes, and tools for managing various aspects of a SharePoint installation. The amount of governance an organization should generally be proportional to the degree to which you are leveraging SharePoint— that is, how many sites you have, and how many different types of people are using them.
This paper explains how to drive value and manage change – but what does that mean, exactly? Even though “managing change” is one of the most commonly emphasized aspects of SharePoint governance; it is not the only aspect. The other aspect of SharePoint governance we like to emphasize here at Perficient is “driving value.” Why? Because you’ve likely adopted SharePoint for reasons that have to do with creating value within your organization.
