Records Management

Valora enables highly-automated solutions for an extensive array of Records & Information Management needs across the enterprise.

Records and Information professionals no longer operate in a paper-only world.  With the added responsibilities of electronic records, the scope of issues has ballooned as the location, size and scope of enterprise data continues to grow. The key challenges faced by RIM professionals include understanding “What is it?”, “Where is it?”  and “How to manage it appropriately?”.  Accounting for repository content across the globe, Records Managers must manage policies, automation and reporting that scales.

Among the first steps in establishing a successful and modernized RM practice is ensuring content processes are grounded in a solid Information Governance framework, with corresponding tools, automation and defensible processes.

 

A good Records Management strategy combines the right process, tools  and intelligent automation for success.
