RecordKeeping for Compliance

• Avg. Acquisition size Approaching 10,000 users– Ability to scale up = key!

• Significant Buyer Skepticism– Many failed pilots.– Poor user acceptance.– Deployment capability = key!

• IT Managers, not Records Managers, = Buyer– Records people in support role only.

What You Need to Know About the Market

• Solutions Must Scale Up– Average implementation size approaching 10,000 users

and up– Requires advanced, web-based technology

• e-Records for ALL Business Processes– Users do not want a desktop application for e-records– Need a way to records-enable all the business processes

• Market is Lacking RM Understanding and Skills– Buyers and Sellers Do not know RM and its

implications– Shortage of Recordkeeping Skills

To Deliver Solutions Against these Requirements, Vendors Must;

• Deliver the appropriate mix of technologies required to meet the requirements

• Carefully and thoughtfully integrate the various technologies into a seamless solution

• Incorporate strong knowledge of the particular industry’s requirements into the solution

• The solution must be “snapped to” a business’s internal framework of policies and processes that reflect the requirements

• An e-Record is:– E-mail– Anything at the desktop

• Deleting the right document at the right time (Retention and Disposition).

– Destroy according to law/policy

• e-Records puts the organization in control of the destruction.

• Consists of (3) new capabilities:– Declare– Classify– Apply Life Cycle

The Solution – e-records

e-Records(3) Objectives

1. Declare (User)• Put a document under e-Records management control

2. Classify (User)• Assign a retention rule to the document• Automatic or Manual Classification

3. Apply LifeCycle (Records Administrator)• Apply LifeCycle rules to a declared document• Destroy or Transfer (out) a record

• Ongoing upgrade/development.– ARMA International ERMC.

• Vendors are $$$ bound to it.– Required for most sales.

The Holy Grail of e-Records

“Go Ahead…

Classify me.”

Content Based Auto-Classify

• Software that “reads” a document, reduces to core concept– Uses Neural Net software technology

• Compares document concept to Subject File– Finds the best match– Builds a taxonomy on the target subject

• Self-Learning– Accuracy rises with more attempts

The Challenges of Content-Based Auto-Classification

• High Effort, Low Yield– Takes 10-20 documents to train each subject/activity– Extraordinary setup effort

• Accuracy still only 70%? (under ideal circumstances)

– Works well in well-defined, predictable situations

• Don’t Relate Searching to Classification– Classification is different from searching

• Required for Success– Cost embedded within e-records technology– Easier taxonomy construction– Faster, smarter classification

1. The Need for RecordKeeping2. Market Assessment/Trends3. Achieving Compliance4. e-Records Fundamentals5. Declaring & Classifying6. The Holy Grail7. Implementation - Making it

Work8. Conclusions/Recommendations


Declaring Electronic RecordsUser Reluctance

• It’s “my” document• This is “too much work”• Let “Admin” do it!

Declare that Document!

“Declaring a document is an unnatural act”

Three “Secrets”of Successful Implementation

1. Success is determined by software implementation, not the software itself

– No matter what the features, users will resist

2. Different apps, platforms, attitudes present different challenges

– A solution that works in one circumstance will not work in another

3. RecordKeeping must be part of the business culture

– Will fail without supporting policies, processes

82

What Implementation is Really All About

81

Declare the Records

Classify Them (correctly)

Apply Disposition to Them

We have to get the records (under our control)

We need to make sure they are (properly) classified

Now we can apply our retention rules to them

Translating to Real Terms

81

Declare the Records

Classify Them (correctly)

Apply Disposition to Them

How are we going to get 10,000 users to do this, reliably and consistently?

How do me make sure classification accuracy rate > 95%?

This cannot be done unless the bottom two layers happen!

This is what we have to achieve!

A 3-Stage Approach to e-Records Success

1.Establish corporate policies based on the regulations that effect you

2.Translate these policies into specific business procedures

3.Apply the technologies to automate and control the business procedures

Stage 3 - Technology

• Users Don’t Want Another Piece of Software for Recordkeeping.

– Perceived as Administration.– More work, no return.

• Recordkeeping Must be Part of Everyday Work Processes.

– No “separate” effort for recordkeeping.• Build e-Records Into the Business Software.

– Declare a record and classify while writing, approving, and sending documents.

Conclusions/Recommendations

• e-Records is here to stay– You’ll need it for compliance

• It is becoming part of ECM– You’ll increasingly have to deal with it

• Learn it!– Don’t think you know it!

• It is difficult to implement– Develop records skills
