Can I manage policies using Microsoft SharePoint alone?

While you can store policies in Microsoft document libraries and Microsoft search will help users find policies, SharePoint itself is not a full policy management solution. It lacks several basic features including employee attestation, policy lifecycle features to support review workflows, and optimised views for policy owners. While SharePoint has many of the basic features that are important for policy management – such as document versioning – you will need an additional product that integrates with SharePoint to use it for policy management at scale.
