Why Policies Don't Stick - and How to Fix It with a Smarter Intranet
By SimplifyIT | Published
Updating a Policy Isn't Enough
Financial institutions update policies constantly - but that doesn't mean staff are reading them. In fact, many employees don't even know what changed. That's a problem when regulators ask who's seen what and when.
Where Traditional Intranets Fall Short
- No Read Tracking: Posting a PDF in a shared folder doesn't mean it was read - or acknowledged.
- Scattered Delivery: Sending updates via email or Teams leaves gaps and no clear audit trail.
- No Accountability: Without due dates or reminders, even critical changes can get ignored.
How a Smart Intranet Closes the Loop
SimplifyIT's intranet includes built-in policy acknowledgment tracking - so you know exactly who viewed and confirmed updates. You can:
- Require Acknowledgment: Staff can't move on without clicking “I've read this.â€
- Send Automatic Reminders: Set due dates and notify anyone who's behind.
- Pull Audit-Ready Reports: Instantly show regulators that changes were seen and confirmed.
When Policies Stick, Risk Drops
Regulators don't just want to see your policies - they want proof that staff followed them. With a smarter intranet, you can actually show it.
