Retention Planning | Fortress Inc

Retention Planning

In today’s day and age, companies must navigate a sea of laws and regulations - including Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, and many others - that define obligations for retaining records to ensure transparency and accountability. How an organization goes about managing record retention is no longer merely a data management challenge, it is a critical issue driven by a new wave of litigation, expanding government investigations into corporate wrongdoing and an increasingly complex set of business, legal, regulatory and compliance issues. Fortress will help your organization plan and implement a comprehensive and legally credible program for records retention and disposal - and ensure it is systematically applied across all business units and geographical locations. We will research the applicable regulations for your industry and create a retention program that will allow you to eliminate unneeded records with a clear conscience. A well-designed, clearly communicated retention program can not only lower your compliance risks and litigation exposure, it can reduce your storage costs by up to 50%.
