These tasks can take 2 days or 2 months, depending on how you’ve decided to distribute your policies and the competency & workload of your IT department. Pro-tip: Do these tasks concurrently with the above content tasks as they’re mutually exclusive.  \nItem Date Who’s Responsible?  \n\n| | The audience for your new policies has been determined and the tasks to ensure that audience can successfully access the policies after launch have been completed.\u003Cbr>Using software?\u003Cbr> Upload/sync your employee list  Set up Single Sign-On\u003Cbr> Set up custom domains |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| | Check and make sure your launch email will be delivered successfully (won’t be caught by spam, etc.) and, if using software, adjust any necessary settings |  |  |\n\nContent & Design Implementation  \nYou may need to involve your marketing team, although that varies greatly by project.  \nItem Date Who’s Responsible?  \n\n| | Send content & branding guidelines to vendor or 3rd party, if you’re using one |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| | Review resulting design with marketing team |  |  |\n| | Circulate final design within HR for feedback |  |  |\n| | Send final design to leadership for feedback |  |  |\n| | Repeat previous 3 steps as necessary... |  |  |\n| | Your policies are designed and ready to launch! |  |  |\n\nLaunch  \nThe big day!
