Records Management - Our Value
Ensure the Council is compliant to the NT Government’s Records Management Framework by implementing Policies,
Business Rules, Procedures and Training. This in turn ensures the council is accountable, transparent and maintains a
professional reputation to it’s community, suppliers, contracts, funding bodies and other relevant stakeholders.
Implemented the Archival program which sees the Annual collection and disposal of archived records that no longer have
retention value in terms of legal, audit, administrative evidence and community interest. This ultimately ensures the
Council’s secondary storage cost is kept to a minimum .
Business Unit Portals InfoXpert can host multiple private interfaces and be the focal point of internal communication
within your Council. Portals is a great way to build a centralised, vibrant and informative internal interface and will
provide ease of access to information. The Council Homepage will provide staff easy access to templates, forms,
calendars, phone listings and staff messages as well as being the gateway to individual Business Unit interface such as
Human Resources, Finance or Work Health and Safety. This concept improves accessibility and acts as a great
communication tool to all relevant stakeholders.
Ensure the Council meet the requirements of the Local Government Act for the NT by implementing good business
processes for the capture and management of minutes, agendas, grant funding documents, policies, invoices, HR
Documentation, agreements etc.
