 Nancy Wu, Head of Client Service
Documentation of company procedures is probably one of the most important activities there is. It is also one of the most wide interpreted activities. Some processes are documented in broad strokes, while others capture detailed instructions and resemble desktop procedures.
The goal of procedural documentation is to preserve intellectual knowledge of the organization and to instruct employees on how things should work. The more detailed and specific a set of procedures is documented, the more likely these objectives can be met. But that also means more maintenance in the form of periodic updates, which may sometimes be impractical.
At a minimum, a good set of procedures should have the following pieces of information included:
1. Listing of major activities within the process, along with step-by-step guidance on how to complete them.
2. Names of documents and reports needed to complete the process, as well as sources (internal department, system reports, vendor, etc.). Include copies of old reports and documents for reference. For time-sensitive information, timing of submission/retrieval is also relevant.
3. Deliverables, if any, that comes out of the process. Include past examples for reference.
And that's really it. At a minimum, you should have enough documented so that a brand new person can roughly execute the process without major assistance.
