IMPLEMENTATION & TRAINING

Implementation expertise helps ensure success

Nothing undermines a records management program faster than a failed or incomplete implementation. That’s why so many organizations turn to Iron Mountain for assistance implementing the policies and procedures that underlie their records management program.

With its vast experience, technology leadership, and skilled resources, Iron Mountain can help you deploy your records management program in a timely, systematic and pragmatic way. For starters, we help you evaluate the risk of your existing records management practices. More mature programs can integrate Iron Mountain’s records management technology to support their storage, retention and disposal policies. Iron Mountain can assist you in introducing (or reintroducing) record management practices to key departments and business units.

Training and communication increase participation

Ultimately, the success of your compliance efforts will rise or fall with your people. That’s why employee training on Policies and Procedures should be a vital component of your records management program.

Unfortunately, for many organizations, training has become low priority. In a cross-industry study conducted by Iron Mountain, only 7% of respondents said they offer regularly scheduled training on all aspects of records management. Thirty-seven percent offered only occasional training, and 28% offered no training at all.

Iron Mountain can help you design a training and communication plan that will achieve your program goals and attune all of your employees with your records management Policies and Procedures. We provide training content tailored to the specific audiences and objectives of your company and an intranet site for the publication of your company’s records management program.
