This curriculum reflects the scope typically addressed across a full consulting engagement or multi-phase internal transformation initiative.

Module 1: Understanding ISO 16175 and Its Implications for Software Requirements

  • Interpret the three-part structure of ISO 16175 (principles, functional requirements, metadata) to align software design with archival integrity
  • Differentiate between recordkeeping requirements under ISO 16175 and general software functional specifications
  • Map organizational compliance obligations to specific clauses in ISO 16175-2 and ISO 16175-3
  • Evaluate trade-offs between system flexibility and standardization when adhering to prescribed metadata sets
  • Identify failure modes in software that result from incomplete implementation of ISO 16175 principles (e.g., lack of authenticity, reliability)
  • Assess the impact of jurisdictional recordkeeping laws on the interpretation and enforcement of ISO 16175 requirements
  • Define thresholds for when ISO 16175 compliance becomes a non-negotiable requirement in procurement and system design
  • Establish governance mechanisms to maintain alignment with ISO 16175 across software lifecycle phases

Module 2: Defining Functional Requirements for Recordkeeping Systems

  • Decompose high-level recordkeeping functions (capture, classification, disposal) into testable software requirements
  • Specify system behaviors for mandatory functions such as declaration, retention scheduling, and access control enforcement
  • Design input validation rules that enforce completeness and accuracy of record metadata at point of creation
  • Balance usability concerns with strict compliance requirements in user interface design for record declaration
  • Model workflows that integrate recordkeeping actions into business processes without disrupting productivity
  • Define exception handling procedures for failed record captures or metadata validation errors
  • Specify audit logging requirements for all recordkeeping-relevant system events in accordance with ISO 16175-3
  • Conduct gap analysis between existing software capabilities and required functional compliance

Module 3: Metadata Strategy and Schema Design Under ISO 16175

  • Select mandatory versus optional metadata elements from ISO 16175-2 based on organizational risk profile
  • Design extensible metadata schemas that support both standard compliance and future business needs
  • Resolve conflicts between existing enterprise metadata models and ISO 16175-prescribed fields
  • Define data types, constraints, and value domains for each required metadata element
  • Implement automated metadata population strategies while maintaining accountability for provenance
  • Evaluate performance implications of metadata indexing and querying at scale
  • Establish ownership and stewardship models for metadata lifecycle management
  • Validate metadata completeness and consistency across system interfaces and data migrations

Module 4: System Integration and Interoperability Constraints

  • Map data flows between business systems and recordkeeping repositories using ISO 16175-3 interface requirements
  • Specify API contracts that ensure reliable transfer of records and associated metadata
  • Design error recovery protocols for failed transfers or partial data synchronization
  • Assess performance trade-offs between real-time synchronization and batch processing of records
  • Enforce data integrity checks at integration points to prevent corruption or loss
  • Define schema versioning strategies to manage evolution of metadata across integrated systems

  • Specify immutable logging requirements and retention periods for audit data
  • Implement tamper-evident controls for critical recordkeeping functions
  • Define procedures for audit preparation, including log extraction and reporting formats
  • Balance transparency needs with privacy and confidentiality constraints in audit design
  • Validate that system-generated evidence supports legal defensibility of records management practices
  • Establish escalation paths for detected policy violations or control failures
  • Translate retention schedules into executable system rules with precise start triggers and durations
