KLST Share Governance

Governance101 Program of Work

KLST “Governance101” Program of Work is an engagement with KL Software Technologies, a premier Microsoft Managed Partner and a global leader in providing Microsoft Business Solutions to Fortune100, ASX100, and FTSE100 organizations around the world. This engagement will focus on helping your organization rollout an effective governance plan, which ensures your SharePoint portal is well-managed, used in accordance with its designed intent and to prevent it from becoming an unmanageable system. The plan will include the rules and procedures for the use of the SharePoint portal and also identify the tactical, technically-competent team to manage the routine operational tasks that keep the enterprise-wide portal running.

Based on our extensive experience of rolling out robust SharePoint Governance Framework for global large enterprises (30,000+ users worldwide) to mid-sized organizations (250+ users nationally), we have defined a series of proven SharePoint Governance Plan templates that can accelerate a complex and time-consuming process of defining an organization-wide SharePoint Governance Framework that is aligned with original business vision and desired business outcomes around using SharePoint.

“Governance101” Program of Work tackles three key “major” areas for governing SharePoint, namely:

  • IT Governance of the software itself and the services you provide.
  • Application Governance of the custom solutions you provide.
  • Information Management Governance of the content and information that users store in those services.
