When Policies Go Missing: Avoiding Risk with a Searchable Intranet
By SimplifyIT | Published
Policies Are Useless If No One Can Find Them
Every bank and credit union has them - but if policies live in an old network drive or buried inbox attachment, they may as well not exist. And when auditors or employees need access, the scramble begins.
How Risk Creeps In
- Old versions get circulated by accident
- Staff reference out-of-date guidelines
- No audit trail of who's seen or acknowledged what
It's not just annoying. It's a compliance gap - and regulators don't accept 'we couldn't find it' as an excuse.
The Intranet Advantage
A searchable intranet turns a mess of folders into a reliable resource. With the right solution, you can:
- Surface policies by keyword or category instantly
- Tag documents by department, audience, and version
- Track acknowledgments for HR or audits
Real-World Example
A SimplifyIT credit union client reduced policy requests by 90% after launching their intranet. Employees stopped asking, 'Where's the latest version?' - because they already knew.
