Digital Records Modernization

Records modernization usually begins as a technology project and turns out to be a policy one. Most estates have a retention schedule that is not executed, a classification scheme nobody applies consistently, and disposition that has never run — so the estate grows indefinitely and every record remains discoverable forever. Replacing the system does not fix any of that. The modernization that matters is making the schedule executable, which requires the vocabulary to be explicit and the classification automatic.

Centralpoint applies the organization's own retention vocabulary during ingestion, so records arrive classified against the schedule rather than awaiting manual assignment. Because disposition operates on records with their version lineage and derived artefacts, executing the schedule covers the AI layer as well — interaction logs, cached answers and index membership follow the same lifecycle rather than persisting after the record is gone.
