In addition a position in the internal audit group may provide access into
all parts of the organization on a regular or scheduled basis, as well as
attention from upper management if there are deficiencies found during
audits.

The answer is, "It depends."  There are no cookie cutter solutions.

 

One alternative to consider is linking RM to the General Counsel Office.
That is one of the few offices that looks at the big picture and has
responsibility for all departments.  The GCO is dependent on RM for records
production in the discovery phase of litigation.  A GCO that 

wants to limit the organization's legal risk will make sure that the RM
department is staffed and funded well enough to insure that the 

retention schedule is accurate, comprehensive, and enjoys near universal
participation from the staff.

 

So in an organization with significant legal risk, consider attaching RM to
the GCO.  In this situation, IT dance to the GCO's tune.

 

Also, sometimes IT is undervalued, underfunded, and confined to the basement
until something goes wrong.
