Larry, I understand where you are coming from here. Not all Records come into
our organizations as Records, most start their life as organizational content, they
are passed through email, cloud services (rogue or otherwise), ECM systems,
mobile apps, etc.
Every time that content changes hands, is modified, is utilized, it is duplicating
across multiple systems. While the declared Record has remained irrefutable,
what are we doing about the multiple copies that were never declared and aren't
managed with the same care as the ERMS.
The purpose of disposition is to reduce organizational risk and ensure
compliance, does disposition achieve those goals (in most, or many,
organizations) anymore? No, I don't believe that it does and I think many would
agree with me on that point. Disagree with how I propose we solve the problem,
that's fine. However, this is a problem that needs to be addressed by the RM
community, otherwise it will be addressed by CIOs/CTOs and lead to further
marginalization of the RM profession.
