Steps
Develop the organization map for all the departments

The first step of this activity of defining a rule management team is to develop the organization map for all departments involved in the rule governance. A chart diagram can be used, and business, IT and quality group needs to be describe. A table of role, responsibility and location of each department is necessary to list all the stakeholders.

Define the mission of the rule management team
An example of mission statement may be :Support the specification, organization, authoring, quality of the business rules to benefit the company business goals.
Assign rule set responsibility and access control

For each rule set we need to have one owner and we need to define access control for team members and other. The architect can start from the rule set table, and complete it by defining the department owner of the rule set, the policy manager(s), the reviewer(s) and finally the author(s).
