Information Governance & Framework helps businesses control the vast amounts of data that are generated through daily operational activity. It applies a structured approach to managing this valuable resource. Information governance provides the framework for organisations to maximise the value of their information while minimising the inevitable associated risks and costs. It covers the complete data lifecycle from inception, storage, through to retention decisions based on legal timeframes.
Our Information Governance & Framework service is based on deep knowledge of the ever-evolving regulatory environment. Different regulatory requirements apply to different classes of organisational data, and specific expertise is essential to the process.
