In an era of increasing regulatory demands, evolving business models, and heightened scrutiny from stakeholders, managing policies is no longer just a legal formality—it’s a strategic imperative. Policies shape the culture, define acceptable behavior, guide risk management, and ensure compliance.

Yet many organizations continue to manage their policies in silos, using outdated tools, inconsistent language, and manual processes. This disconnect creates confusion, increases risk exposure, and weakens the organization’s ability to adapt.


The Policy Management Capability Model, developed by OCEG, offers a structured and scalable approach to address these challenges—transforming policy management from a static document repository into a dynamic, enterprise-wide capability.



What Is the Policy Management Capability Model?

The Policy Management Capability Model is a best-practice framework that helps Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) professionals improve the way policies are:


  • Governed – Aligned with business strategy, values, and compliance objectives

  • Planned – Developed and approved based on stakeholder needs and regulatory requirements

  • Performed – Communicated, adopted, and enforced across the organization

  • Measured – Monitored for effectiveness, violations, and ongoing improvements


The model provides a holistic approach to ensure that policies are not only created effectively—but also lived, understood, and acted upon by every employee.
