Component and token inventory

This section explains how to apply component and token inventory in a corporate intranet with practical governance, clear ownership, and measurable outcomes. Treat the intranet as a governed operating hub: centralize content, connect workflows, and use data to decide what should improve first.

Best practices

• Start with one measurable delivery per sprint.
• Standardize names, taxonomies, and templates to avoid content silos.
• Use light segmentation by business unit, profile, and location.
• Collect continuous feedback with polls, reactions, and internal NPS.

Practical example

1. Map the current flow and identify bottlenecks.
2. Publish a high-impact page or card with clear CTAs.
3. Pilot with a representative user sample.
4. Iterate content and UX based on engagement data.
