Policy Development

The largest bankruptcy in history occurs, and investigators discover that the company and their auditors indiscriminately destroyed critical records. This story is a stark reminder that managing company records requires directives for normal operations and altogether different rules when faced with audits, investigations and litigation.

The monetary - and even criminal - exposure an organization can face as a result of their failure to create and enforce Information Management policies can be devastating. Courts have imposed strict penalties on organizations not only for the destruction of records itself, but for the failure to have a policy in place.

Developing Information Management policies is a complex task that must consider legal and regulatory obligations, organizational culture and structure, technology, and several other factors.

KCI has developed Information Management policies for all sizes of corporate and government organizations. KCI's multidisciplinary approach results in policies that are both compliant and practical.

A successful Information Management program includes regular review of written policies and practices. Changes in laws, regulations and case law, mergers and acquisitions, and the installation of new technology all require current procedures to be evaluated and updated.

In addition to policy and practice development, KCI offers comprehensive evaluations of your organization's Information Management practices and policies. With services ranging from a basic review of a single written policy to a complete review of your Information Management program that includes onsite inspections, personnel interviews and management reports, KCI will help ensure that your policies and practices are up-to-date.
