Most errors in compliance occur after site launch
They are avoidable
Authors need process guidance, and Sitecore provides it
Non compliant content simply cannot be published until completion
Sitecore CMS includes the inbuilt mechanism to manage ongoing author
behaviour – and stop non-compliance in it’s tracks.
