Salesforce Platform Governance Method: A Guide to Governing Changes, Development, and Enhancements on the Salesforce Platform

Accelerate your Salesforce implementation to provide benefits to your business more rapidly while maintaining control and improving quality.

Salesforce has become one of the most influential business tools in our modern age. What started as the world's most comprehensive customer relationship management (CRM) system available in the market place has now morphed over the years into an ecosystem of tools and services that enable you to run your entire business platform. 

This book gives you a method (a set of governance processes) that provides a complete view of how to govern and manage any Salesforce implementation. It breaks the architectural components of the Salesforce platform into manageable sections, allowing you to navigate and understand how to govern your Salesforce implementation in a consistent manner with an approach that is structured, repeatable, and clearly defined.  

Salesforce Platform Governance Method is divided into nine distinct phases which have been chosen based on how the Salesforce platform is architected. This is relevant today because every organization that implements Salesforce will face the same issues around governance, integration, development, and security and the majority of organizations will find, through trial and error, a solution to govern these components. This book will help Salesforce professionals and enterprise organizations as well as small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) navigate these topics and ultimately have a successful and fully integrated, secure Salesforce implementation.
