Office XP Signatures

Current Scenario:

All users use various email signatures. No restrictions.

COO wants all users to use the same signature.

Proposed Solution:

IT has prepared an HTML template. Place template in a network share and direct users to configure their own Outlook to use said template and make necessary indentifiable modifications. Send out Powerpoint presentation to instruct users on this course of action.

Does anyone have any other suggestions or can point me in another direction? I believe this method could cause widespread confusion among the users and increase the workload of an already understaffed MIS department.

Thanks for all who contribute!
