The Strategy

The Victorian Electronic Reconds Strategy specifies a standard format for electronic records. The Strategy;

  • is generic but extensible, so that it will work in conjunction with existing recordkeeping and business practices
  • ensures that all records are stored in a documented format, to enable viewing of records in the future, regardless of the system that created them
  • specifies methods to automate the capture of records from the desktop and business systems
  • specifies ways and forms in which to capture information about records and encapsulate this with the records to ensure that records in the future will be understood in context
  • details a method for securing records so that any changes are detectable
