The Business Need for Policy Management

It is essential that organisations put in place effective policies, procedures and controls to complement new business challenges and achieve operational efficiencies, whilst also addressing legislative and regulatory requirements. As organisations grow, become geographically dispersed and more highly regulated, this becomes difficult to sustain. Therefore the policy management process cannot simply stop at the creation and publication of policies and procedures. They must be readily available, kept up-to-date, clearly communicated and auditable for compliance reporting.

To assure governance across the enterprise, an organisation must also seek to:

• Raise awareness of new and updated policies and procedures
• Ensure people understand relevant policies and procedures
• Record people’s acceptance to abide by policies and procedures
• Demonstrate effective policy controls are in place
• Provide an accurate audit trail of activities
• Report policy compliance
