Intranet Governance Accelerator

Implement intranet governance like a pro. When you're implementing or improving your digital workplace toolset or your intranet, you need to put governance in place to ensure successful outcomes. We've created a service and framework to help rapidly implement your governance model and management processes – slashing time, cost and effort. We'll work with you to scope, scale and implement governance that is right for your organisation with online resources, workshops and a collaborative workspace.

We get it

Governance often comes last, but at the price of chaos later down the line. Making sure that you get governance in place is critical to ensure sustainable and valuable outcomes. That's true for digital collaboration tools, digital communications and the full range of intranet content. But that is often hard to do on a deadline when resources are tight.

This is what we do

We've implemented intranet and digital workplace governance dozens of times. We've seen what works and how to get things right because we've seen it go wrong. We've captured everything we know from our experience as practitioners and consultants into this service to get you up and running as quickly as possible.

How it works

The accelerator is a package of workshops, guidance, templates, processes, exercises and outlines of governance controls that we can work on together to get just right for you.

The process has four stages:
1. Initiation – Includes provisioning the Governance Accelerator, discovery work with the project team, and a scoping workshop.
2. Sprint One – Multiple governance controls are created collaboratively with the client, followed by a gate meeting.
3. Sprint Two – Additional governance controls are developed, ending in a second gate meeting.
4. Roadmap – Final stage where controls are handed over with an implementation roadmap.

All this is hosted on a secure, collaborative environment that you will be given access to as part of the engagement - everything is delivered remotely anywhere in the world using this tool, or your own collaboration tools if you prefer. After you get access to the shared collaborative environment we will:

Have a kick off workshop to help scope out the governance model you need
Work with you to advise on the right approach for you
Agree what we will deliver and conduct two sprints to develop governance controls collaboratively
Finalise and handover the governance model for you to implement internally.

Just get in contact and we can give you a demonstration of the accelerator and show you how it works. If you'd like to go ahead we'll issue you with a statement of work and we can start as soon as we've got a signature.
