  11. Value Opportunities • Content and Records Management enable: • Data Reduction • Soft Compliance • Hard Compliance • Search & Discovery • Data Movement, Protection & Recovery

Challenge: Cost associated with Risk • Compliance Fulfillment/Operational Costs • Reduce operational costs and human error with centralized control and uniform retention policies • Conform with external mandates for document retention – and be able to prove it • Identify and capture records with minimal burden on employees • Address multiple and/or future unforeseen regulations by deploying recordkeeping and compliance tools within the organization’s IT infrastructure and organization policies

  20. Challenge: Managing eRecords Currently, are electronic records included in your RM program? Risk –With 92% of all new information being electronic, not having electronic records in RM program significantly reduces credibility of “good faith” RM program in court. Does your organization’s record retention schedule include electronic records? Risk –With nearly half (47%) of organizations not including e-records and their retention schedules, many e-records will not be disposed of in accordance with retention schedule.
