We recently completed the records management certification of native SharePoint 2010 add-ons based on the DoD 5015.2 standard. Here is the JITC page where all of the certified solutions are identified. We believe that this is the only native SharePoint add-on that is certified by the DoD 5015.2 standard, although several other organizations, such as Open Text, Laserfiche, and Autonomy have certified their ECM solutions in an integrated configuration with SharePoint
One of the many results of these changes was the creation of a Department of Defense-wide standard for records management applications, the DoD 5015.2 Electronic Records Management Software Applications Design Criteria Standard. Nearly fifteen years later, Chris DeLara was serving his country as a soldier in Iraq
4 Comments - Meg - Microsoft hired Gimmal (including Don Lueders) to design a add-in for SharePoint 2010 that could be certified by the DoD 5015.2 standard. After we designed it, Jeff Teper decided that there were too many international jurisdictions with conflicting records management rules to add these capabilities to the SharePoint code base. Gimmal then developed and certified our products by the DoD 5015.2 standard, Chapters 2, 3 & 5
Very few people outside of the Department of Defense have more firsthand experience with the DoD 5015.2 Electronic Records Management Software Applications Design Criteria Standard than I do
17 Comments - I appreciate your tenacity on this, but we are going to have to respectfully agree to disagree here. The DoD 5015.2 model for records management has been a staggering failure
When selecting a records management system, there are two important certifications to consider: DoD 5015.2 and VERS. What is DoD 5015.2? Many organizations use DoD 5015.2-STD Electronic Records Management Software Applications Design Criteria Standard from the U.S
[Editor's Note:: Read Don Lueders' original post: On Why I No Longer Support the DoD 5015.2 Standard . You can also read another voice in the debate, Ron Layel: To Support or Not Support the DoD 5015.2 Standard (Some pet peeves and views on the debate from a RIM practioner's perspective) ] Don, your analysis is very detailed and on the mark. 5015.02-STD is in need of an update to reflect how RM is done these days
5 Comments - Why are the discussions and serious work on standards for managing Government electronic records in the US always limited to DoD 5015.2, as though it is the only existing standard?
A little over a year ago, I posted an article on the AIIM Community explaining why I no longer supported the DoD 5015.2 Electronic Records Management Standard
This is the part where serendipity comes in. The DoD 5015.2 records management standard had just been issued and one of our customers wanted a document management solution, which would also comply with the brand new DoD 5015.2 standard
For software selection, there are the Department of Defense 5015.2 standard and the Model Requirements of the European Union. DoD 5015.2 describes functionality that is the basis for testing records management software products and certifying them against the standard. Most U.S. government entities must use records management software that is DoD 5015.2 certified. MoReq, in contrast, is a standard originally written to assist with purchasing records management software products and it offers an extensive description of features and functions that an entity might need
I love both Don Lueders’ detailed post on this subject, On Why I No Longer Support the DoD 5015.2 Standard , and Mark Mandel’s rebuttal, I Support DoD 5015.2; and Encourage ALL Federal Agencies to Adopt It, as I believe that a full debate on standards for IT systems creating and housing Official Federal Records is really needed
4 Comments - We recognize that there are many powerful products on the market now, including DOD 5015.2 certified systems, and many agencies do make effective use of them to manage their electronic records
The question I am most often asked by records managers is 'do we need to plug a DoD 5015.2/MoReq2 compliant ECM at the back of SharePoint?
