Getting users to follow company standards

Hello,

We are currently doing a review on the company BIM standards and how can we make it easier to users to abide to and use them.

These, the standards, include not just the company BIM Library but also how-to workflows and procedures to set-up and develop a model.

Some questions pop up such as:

- how to increase standards visibility so that it is more obvious for users to know where they are and consult them? (intranet, PDF, other?)
- how to improve BIM library user access so that it becomes the first port of call before looking for new families in the web or duplicating existing ones?

How have you tackled this issues at your companies?
Care to share successful tried approaches?

Many thanks for the feedback.
