3. Solution
We used the Media Wiki web application and we involved all the IT
resources, the Internal Audit function and the HR & Organization
management to write down the procedures;
We created an executive commitee (IT/Audit/HR&O) to manage the control
and authorization path of the procedures;
Top Management approved the procedures directly on the Wiki.
The procedures were published on the corporate intranet in a second time,
when needed.
