NF ISO 30301

Information and documentation - Management systems for records - Requirements

This document specifies requirements to be met by a management system for records (MSR) in order to support an organization in the achievement of its mandate, mission, strategy and goals. It addresses the development and implementation of a records policy and objectives and gives information on measuring and monitoring performance.

An MSR can be established by an organization or across organizations that share business activities. Throughout this document, the term "organization" is not limited to one organization but also includes other organizational structures.

This document is applicable to any organization that wishes to:

— establish, implement, maintain and improve an MSR to support its business;

— ensure itself of conformity with its stated records policy;

— demonstrate conformity with this document by

1. undertaking a self-assessment and self-declaration, or
2. seeking confirmation of its self-declaration by a party external to the organization, or
3. seeking certification of its MSR by an external party.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!

The Redline + service - standards comparator allows you to easily and simply identify major changes between the current standard and its last canceled version.
