We can help you prioritise and achieve your goals through a series of Backfile Conversion, Day Forward Scanning and Scanning On-Demand programs. You can even have your inbound physical mail redirected to our secure facilities, and our team of experts will receive, open and scan your mail.

Digital Mailroom solution

Iron Mountain Digital Mailroom solution is a software as a service (SaaS) offering that enables you to enhance operational efficiency by digitising physical mail to provide secure access and retrieval for your employees, automating document-centric processes, and connecting your data across platforms.

It provides comprehensive tools for intelligent document processing, content management and information governance, allowing your agency to efficiently access, manage and utilise its data while ensuring compliance and driving digital transformation.

Policy Centre

Keep your records retention and data privacy policy management connected, current and compliant through the cloud-based Policy Centre solution. As laws change, you can count on high quality research from our international network of law firms to know how changes impact your organisation so you can update your policies accordingly. Available as a subscription service, you’ll receive a feed of fully cited and summarised legal citations with a simple explanation of the requirements to empower your decisions on retention rules and privacy obligations that make sense for your organisation.

Smart Sort

Clean up your legacy records with Iron Mountain Smart Sort. This cost-effective and efficient solution is designed to sort, organise and manage physical files — enabling users to easily identify what to keep, destroy, digitise or provide for specific business. It reduces the complexity and labour involved in records management, helping to deflate storage costs, mitigate risks and streamline the flow of information.

Secure shredding ensures the safe and compliant destruction of paper-based records and other sensitive materials directly at your entity’s location. It provides public sector agencies with a secure method to destroy documents containing confidential information, thereby protecting against data breaches, ensuring regulatory compliance, and supporting sustainability through proper disposal and recycling practices.

Think of us as your digital transformation partner.

Through our partnership, we’ll help you achieve the following.

Developing a strategy that supports the lifecycle management of your information and assets enhances accessibility and empowers your entity to deliver exceptional value. By adopting digital transformation and automating workflow processes, we can help you enhance efficiency, accuracy and visibility — while providing deeper insights into actionable metrics

Digital transformation enhances access to information, improving the citizens’ experience. For success, your entity must consider the entire information lifecycle. By optimising capacity and reducing redundancy and complexity, you can save time and resources. We are here to help you develop and implement a strategic plan to help you realise the cost-saving benefits of digital transformations.

Information goes through a lifecycle: it’s created, utilised, stored, accessed and ultimately, either archived or destroyed. The final step — although necessary for risk mitigation — frequently receives insufficient attention. Public sector agencies must maintain a strong approach to information lifecycle management — and we can help. Iron Mountain can assist you in enhancing security and compliance, facilitating discovery management and strengthening information governance across your agency.
