Records Management Procedure Writing
Structured Control of Operational and Technical Records
A records management procedure explains how records are created, classified, captured, stored, retrieved, protected, retained, and disposed of.
We organize record ownership, metadata, access, retention periods, storage locations, preservation, and authorized disposal.
The procedure can be tailored to technical projects, engineering, quality, facilities, IT, finance, administration, and corporate operations.
