A SharePoint governance document is a collection of policies and procedures regarding the way that SharePoint is to be configured, used and maintained within an organization. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a universal governance template, as every organization's governance needs are different.

The template below (provided by IT Business Edge partner Toolkit Café) contains a sample SharePoint governance plan. While this plan probably won't meet your organization's exact needs, it is intended to provide you with a good starting point in creating your own governance plan.
