Chair of these communities: TC171 SC2 US WG11 Trusted system | ECM WG

Sr. Group Manager/Director responsible for building a records management team as part of a corporate wide data transformation effort.   Initial project was to evaluate and prepare a detailed records maturity assessment of the corporate records management environment on an international scale.  This maturity assessment process followed GARP methods and ISO 18829 and resulted in a highly detailed identification of records management related issues and areas that need to be addressed and resolved.  The goal of this effort was to identify all aspects of the current records environment that needs to be resolved through the development of a detailed target state model.  The Target State model will include detailed information related to building the business case, presenting various options to address identified issues, identify existing and new technologies required to bring records environment into compliance with industry standards, and the development of an actionable and realistic roadmap along with working with all relevant departments, sectors, and regions to gain agreement on the various change management activities that would be required to successfully transition the existing records environment.
