Ensure your data migration projects meet international best practices and stringent compliance standards with our comprehensive self-assessment tool aligned to ISO 16175. Designed for records managers, information governance professionals, and IT leaders, this programme empowers your organisation to execute secure, auditable, and legally defensible data migrations—on time and with confidence.
Gain clear visibility into how ISO 16175 applies to your digital recordkeeping environment. This assessment enables you to:
- Map migration goals to ISO 16175-2 functional requirements, ensuring trustworthy digital records management across systems
- Identify mandatory metadata fields—including provenance, fixity, and access controls—critical for compliance during dataset transfers
- Assess current practices against ISO 16175-3 technical benchmarks and close critical gaps in data handling and governance
- Distinguish normative requirements from guidance to prioritise compliance efforts and allocate resources efficiently
- Design migration workflows with robust audit trails that support legal defensibility and regulatory scrutiny
- Define project scope by record type—business, legal, or regulatory—and establish clear accountability across legal, IT, and records teams
Effective data migration demands more than technical execution—it requires strong governance and cross-functional alignment. This self-assessment equips you to lead with authority, providing frameworks to analyse stakeholder impact, clarify data ownership, and classify data by sensitivity and business criticality. Establish a formal governance charter, implement change control protocols, and validate decision rights for data transformations—all essential for minimising risk and ensuring consistency.
Whether you're preparing for a system upgrade, cloud transition, or regulatory audit, this tool delivers practical clarity and structured guidance to strengthen your data governance posture.
