Where would it need to be not to die? Also, what kind of documentation? Technical? Or business?

Some departments do stupid things like duplicating information. We use confluence to describe the requirements, the concepts, then point to the right locations.
Take IPs, some departments have pages and pages with the same IP, subnet, etc in
