An SOP portal was implemented to streamline document management, enhance searchability, enforce version control, and automate certification tracking ensuring compliance and improved user engagement.
Context
- The client requires an SOP portal for effective document management.
- The solution must align with the organization’s content management policies.
- Key functionalities include document access, search, security, version control, user engagement and notifications.
Challenge(s)
-
- Employees struggled to find relevant SOPs due to lack of document repository.
- Multiple versions of the same SOP existed across different locations, leading to confusion, outdated information usage, and compliance risks.
- There was no mechanism to track SOP readership.
- SOP expiration and updates were not effectively.
Approach
-
- Use OOTB capabilities to manage SOP storage, versioning, and tracking views while enabling alerts.
- Define SharePoint security groups, metadata, and taxonomy for structured content organization and access control.
- Use Power apps & automate for notifications like SOP expiration required SOP updates, and pending exams.
Outcome

- Automated approval and version control.
- Enhanced security with access
- Improved Operational Efficiency.
- Logging the changes for the records for auditing purposes.
