Kavanagh expertise

At Kavanagh we recognise the important role that IT systems can play in supporting our customers' compliance requirements. These may be driven by industry legislation, best practice standards or company initiatives for corporate governance.

Fundamental to compliance is the ability to identify and manage all data types in use within an organisation. This means retaining the right information for the right length of time and being able to retrieve it promptly when required. Kavanagh's effective and economical approach is to match the importance and currency of the data to the underlying storage media and to provide powerful content-based retrieval capabilities. This approach is called Information Lifecycle Management (ILM).
