Smart Sort is a simple and budget-friendly solution to help you finally gain control of your records inventory.
Is Smart Sort only for records stored at Iron Mountain?
What if I have records stored in multiple locations or with various vendors?
We will consolidate the inventory at an Iron Mountain facility and then conduct the Smart Sort project. At the completion of the project, we store only those records that are required to be retained. The Smart Sort process identifies files that have met retention requirements and can be defensibly destroyed. With a cleaned-up inventory, you can reduce your costs by paying to store only those files that need to be retained for compliance requirements.
What does it take to start the Smart Sort process?
Does Smart Sort support multiple records retention policies and record types?
What record types are recommended, and which are not, for a Smart Sort project?
Am I required to use Smart Sort on my entire inventory or can I proceed with a phased approach?
I need a defensible process for records destruction. How can Smart Sort help?
- The Smart Sort process leverages your retention schedule and rules to create a standardised methodology for file review and processing. This rules-based approach allows us to deliver a consistent and defensible output.
- At the end of the Smart Sort process, we will provide a report that gives you file-level visibility and the corresponding disposition for each file. This report enables you to defend the actions taken on each file.
