This Publicly Available Specification (PAS) provides recommendations for defining, implementing and managing website policies and standards.
This PAS is applicable to all types of organization (including public and private companies, non-profit organizations, government departments, local councils, public sector organizations and academic institutions).
NOTE Although the guidance contained in this PAS is relevant to any organization with a website (including public websites, intranets or extranets), the scope of the recommendations are most directly applicable to organizations with enterprise-scale websites.
This PAS is for use by:
-
organizations considering, planning, or in the process of developing, website policies and standards;
-
organizations with existing website policies and standards wishing to align themselves with best practice methodologies;
-
organizations looking to improve or articulate their website governance structure and process.
This PAS can be used by anyone who manages or has responsibility for a website. This could include:
-
global communications teams;
-
marketing teams;
-
corporate communications teams;
-
brand guardians;
-
website managers;
-
external agencies responsible for defining and/or managing website policies and standards;
-
IT managers, especially those involved in setting up a content management system (CMS);
-
legal/compliance/IT risk teams.
This PAS is intended to be independent of the underlying publication platforms and technologies used in the creation of websites. It can therefore be used to inform the definition and deployment of website policies and standards for all types of website including: static websites, dynamic websites, web portals, mobile websites, e-commerce websites and content published by organizations on external sites, such as social media sites.
This PAS does not cover website policies and standards for the following types of web-based services and applications: “software-as-a-service”/cloud computing services, virtual learning environments and internet- enabled “widgets” and applications (e.g. mobile applications).
This PAS does not cover the following types of technical standards: infrastructure standards (e.g. connectivity, performance and availability), security standards, code standards or the use of semantic web technologies.
