WBG Records Management Roadmap

The Records Management Roadmap is a multi-part toolkit, designed to help governments and public-sector organizations implement strategic and coordinated improvements in records management.

The primary audience for this Roadmap is governments, organizations, or other agencies around the world that wish to develop and improve the management of their organizational records or other sources of documentary evidence.

The Roadmap is a self-contained resource, including instructional information and guidance, assessment tools, explanations of terms and concepts, and resource materials, to allow organizations to evaluate their own records management needs and identify priorities for action.

  • plan strategic actions to enhance operations
  • identify best-practice resources
