Modernize Your Organization's Information Governance and Records and Information Management Program
POLICIES AND PRACTICES
Balance Risk, Cost, and Data Growth
We help organizations negotiate and draft the appropriate information management policies to meet their business and regulatory needs. This allows companies to reduce risk, decrease storage footprint and cost, and eliminate the burden from the employees as much as practicable.
Kahn builds solutions to meet unique organizational needs because one size does not fit all. Each organization has different business needs, regulatory landscape, technology in use, and budgetary constraints. Over the last two decades, Kahn has worked across most industries advising small to Fortune 100 companies that have global footprints.
​
For most organizations, reasonableness is the answer. The Kahn team can help your organization get your information under management.

INFORMATION GOVERNANCE ASSESSMENT
Mitigate Risk, Reduce Cost, Improve Compliance, Improve Governance
Elevate your organization's information management practices with Kahn Consulting's Information Governance Assessment. Our broad analysis provides expert insights to identify risks where compliance challenges may exist with key laws and regulations. We identify potential risks associated with the management of sensitive information, such as personal identifiable information, personal health information, intellectual property, trade secrets, etc., while also providing recommendations to mitigate the risk. We will recommend ways to improve your information management processes, reduce costs, and protect valuable assets with the guidance of Kahn Consulting's Information Governance Assessment.

SIMPLIFIED RECORDS RETENTION SCHEDULES
Simple Rules that Employees Can Follow and Can be Automated
​
With years of experience, the Kahn team has refined and simplified records retention rules. It is a reality that not one type of records retention schedule will fit all organizations. The organization's regulatory landscape, reliance on cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and IoT, its desire to defensibly dispose of records and non-records (i.e., cruds), its litigation profile, its data growth, and the allocated budget all play a factor in the type of records retention schedule that your organization should deploy.
We can provide record retention schedules that range from "off-the-shelf" to highly customized schedules and big bucket rules to detailed record-level schedules. We can enhance a traditional record retention schedule to include the location of stored (i.e., shared drive, applications, etc.), classification of the record (security, privacy, IP, etc.), media type, where information is stored in the cloud, among other things.
