Electronic Records Management

 

 

The creation and maintenance of an effective Electronic Records Management program is essential to ensure that companies continue to operate efficiently in today’s marketplace. It is good business practice to retain Records in a consistent, systematic, and reliable manner so that they can be retrieved promptly when required for legal, regulatory, historical, or operational reasons.

Regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and the Security and Exchange Commission's Rule 17a have put additional burdens on most companies that can be mitigated through effective planning and execution within an ERM system. Failure to keep Records in good order can result in very serious consequences including enforcement action being taken by regulators, reputation damage, or an inability to defend or pursue litigation.  Such actions may be detrimental to ongoing business operations.
