Transform to meet citizens' needs: Iron Mountain on AWS for public sector

Iron Mountain on AWS for public sector

Business challenge

Educational institutions and local, state, and federal government institutions and agencies have long recognized that data can be used to enhance efficiency along with quality of life for citizens. But despite years of digital transformation, the public sector still depends heavily on paper documents, including decades of paper records that need to be preserved for future generations and for regulatory compliance. Sifting through paperwork, managing records manually, and waiting for urgent information that may be incomplete or missing slows down operations and leads to poor constituent experiences.

Impact

According to the Office of the President, “the Federal Government spends hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars and thousands of hours annually to create, use, and store Federal records in analog (paper and other non-electronic) formats. Maintaining large volumes of analog records requires dedicated resources, management attention, and security investments that should be applied to more effectively managing electronic records.^"1 

The processes that create analog records increase burden on citizens by requiring them to conduct business with the Government in person or by mail, rather than online, and trap valuable Federal data in paper records where it can only be extracted manually and at great expense."

In addition, public sector organizations are faced with added pressure to harness information while complying with competing initiatives, mandates, and directives maintaining data access and transparency.
