Myth # 1. Records Management starts when the boxes of files go offsite. Reality: Records Management is a discipline that starts when a record – paper or electronic – is actually created. By waiting until a record is no longer active to begin tracking its movement and access, companies are missing an opportunity to make the record accessible, authentic, and reliable. These characteristics of a record are required by the courts and government auditors. So if you don’t recognize this early on, you face a “pay me now or pay me later” scenario if your company becomes involved in litigation and has to gather responsive materials. In “pay me now,” you take the necessary time to manage records correctly throughout their lifecycle. In “pay me later,” you spend significantly more time and expense gathering case-related materials with a greatly increased risk of incurring penalties and sanctions.

These can be active or legacy documents (18 inches or larger) used in conjunction with small documents. How do they manage their hard copy drawings as easily as they manage smaller documents?
