Pitney Bowes Management Services, Inc. (PBMS), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI) today officially
launched its Records and Information Management (RIM) Consulting
Service to help organizations address concerns about records
systems controls, risk mitigation, storage management and cost
reduction. Robert Mattis, vice president, Business Development,
PBMS, noted that there are several key factors that are driving
increased attention to records and information management in
businesses today. �A growing number of customers are facing
numerous challenges in developing, implementing and maintaining
efficient and effective records management strategies. This is due
to recent amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, an
accelerating transition from paper to electronic records
processing, auditing to track compliance with regulatory
requirements, and the need for strategic planning and direction,�
Mattis stated. �Also, corporations are more dynamic now than 10
years ago, with facility relocations and resizings. Mergers,
acquisitions and divestitures are also having a significant impact
on how companies effectively retain and manage records.� �Through
PBMS� RIM Consulting Service, we can provide an effectively
designed program to help businesses enhance responsiveness,
increase customer satisfaction, ensure compliance with industry
regulations, demonstrate due diligence and improve overall access
to information. PBMS� RIM Consulting Service provides an in-depth
analysis that expands our Document Processing Solutions offering,�
he added. PBMS� RIM Consulting Service is comprised of five key
offerings: Records Program Assessments � RIM consultants identify
needed components to help ensure an effectively designed program
from active/inactive records and retention policies, to recovery
plans. Technology Reviews and Recommendations � PBMS consultants�
analysis help companies identify methods to manage documents
through all phases of their life cycle, to increase efficiency,
minimize costs and reduce risk, through introduction of automated
records management systems, and records media review and selection.
Risk Assessments � With enactment of legislation and creation of
new laws that affect corporate entities, there is an increased need
to demonstrate due diligence and ensure the accuracy and security
of the information held in records. Risk assessments consist of
operational reviews of risk and compliance to verify procedures are
in place and effectively functioning to maintain corporate
operations and reduce or prevent any potential loss. Facilities
Recommendations � The logistics of where and how clients store
their records assets has a significant impact on the costs
associated with records management. Recommendations encompass
facility assessments and design, centralized/decentralized file
organizational plan developments, on-site/off-site selection and
relocation planning. Records Project Work � Addresses concerns
associated with downsizing facilities or personnel, mergers and
acquisitions, or other budgetary changes that require external
resources beyond the scope of internal capabilities. PBMS
Consulting Services help customers combine and/or consolidate
information while reducing costs, minimizing business disruptions
and ensuring regulatory compliance through inventory, purging,
converting or consolidation of records collections. Pitney Bowes
