Artifactory can be used to prevent this 'chaos.' Block access to the most common repositories and force everyone to go through Artifactory. Then utilize an approval process to include items in Artifactory. That way not only can you document your engineering standards, but you can also enforce them.
Minimizing the number of items in your technology portfolio and the number of frameworks you're using has several benefits. You can streamline your hiring. People can more easily move from team-to-team based off their interests and business priorities. You can develop a development training plan. You've reduced your cyber-attack surface area. In my experience, if you don't apply some rigor in managing your technology portfolio then you'll end up with just about everything under the sun in your portfolio. In other words, chaos.
