Records management is the practice of identifying, classifying, archiving, preserving, and destroying records.

You could almost consider it

“The Art of Throwing Things Away.”

But why bother with Records Management?

1. There is a legal requirement to manage company information
2. Records Management is used to prove who knew what, and when
3. Badly managed records could become a legal liability for your company

In short: The ability to control vital company records, is key toward addressing the legal requirements for Governance, Retention and Compliance (GRC).

But this is about more than just technology. Getting user buy-in with Records Management is key.
If it’s not simple enough to encourage end users to actually comply, all the technology in the world won’t help.

There are 3 main Records Management standards, and all are reviewed in this webcast:

1. ISO 15489:2001 (Defined by the International Organization of Standardization. Best practice standard)
2. DoD 5015.2 (US Dept of Defense standard)
3. Moreq2 (European Union standard)
