Yes, just like everything else it requires an updating process.  This is
where active relationship building keeps RIM/IG in the loop.  In my
experience most organizational changes are announced through organizational
news bulletins.  Make it a point to update this information as soon as
possible.  I have spent considerable time sorting this out for boxes that
had been in storage for a long time and it was difficult to pinpoint the
owner for some of the boxes/records - even the current functional areas
didn't recognize the contents:)  In that case RIM became the owner by
default just to have a contact point and disposition decisions were made
jointly with legal, tax, audit etc.

Makes you realize that a RIM program is so much more than a Records
Retention Schedule.  RIM provides a broad range of services to the
organization and requires a manager who recognizes and is able to develop
and implement these services and products as needed to their organization.
