Federal Government Agency

In 2021 a Federal Government Agency identified a need for the implementation of a structured and consistent way of managing records, in line with external recordkeeping and privacy compliance requirements and internal business requirements. 

To facilitate identification and implementation of information management improvements, the agency engaged the services of Recordkeeping Innovation. As part of this engagement Recordkeeping Innovation: 

• Undertook user consultation and data collection to better understand the existing environment and information management practices 
• Developed an information asset register (inclusive of information relating to PII or sensitivity requirements) to provide greater visibility over information assets, and support more effective governance of these assets 
• Developed a current state assessment and supporting implementation plan and roadmap to support implementation of information management improvements and reduction of information management risks 

The engagement provided the agency with a strategic and robust approach for governance of information assets, and reduction or elimination of compliance risks. 

Objectives:

• Implement a strategic and governed approach to managing information assets
