A Records Management strategy is fundamental to a sound records management programme. Our fast-track records management strategy development process is designed to ensure that your records management programme is aligned to your overall corporate objectives, with clear achievable goals and priorities, in the shortest possible time.

We assist public and private sector organisations with creating and implementing records management programmes. This could range from a multi-national implementation of ISO 15489 to development of a registry or records centre procedures manual.
Records management audits provide organisations with an objective assessment of how well records are being created, managed, protected, retained, and disposed of. Without regular audits, gaps in compliance, governance, and operational practice often go unnoticed until an audit finding, investigation, or legal matter exposes significant risk.
A records management policy is one of the key instruments that must be developed and implemented if an organisation is to manage records correctly. The policy is the document that tells all staff how they must manage corporate information assets.

File plans and other classification schemes are critical components of records management implementations. We develop file plans or business classification schemes according to your requirements and implement throughout the organisation.
Our file plans are based on National Archives requirements in various countries, and are designed to ensure that all records are correctly classified, referenced and stored aprropriately. An important component of our file plan development is user training and making sure that the all users understand why the file plan is important, and how to use it correctly. We ensure that the file plans are implementable in any records management or EDRM systems that you may use.
A retention schedule is one of the most important foundations of compliant records and information management. Without clear, approved retention rules, organisations often keep information for too long, dispose of it inconsistently, or cannot defend decisions during audits, investigations, or litigation.
Our Retention Schedule Development service helps organisations create a practical, legally aligned, and defensible retention schedule that supports operational needs, compliance requirements, and Information Governance objectives.
Microsoft SharePoint is a powerful platform, but many organisations struggle to realise its value due to poor structure, weak governance, and inconsistent use. When SharePoint is implemented as a file dump or collaboration tool without clear rules, it quickly becomes cluttered, difficult to manage, and risky from a compliance perspective.
Our SharePoint Implementation Services focus on the practical implementation, structure, and day-to-day use of SharePoint to ensure it supports collaboration, information governance, and records management—rather than undermining them.
