Frequently Asked Questions

What is an IGF?

An Information Governance Framework (IGF) is a structured approach to managing an organisation's information assets, both in digital and physical formats. It encompasses policies, procedures, and practices to ensure that information is treated appropriately, securely, and in compliance with relevant regulations. It aims to safeguard data privacy, protect sensitive information, and facilitate effective information management.

Is IGF mandatory for all organisations?

IGF adoption is not mandatory for all organisations. However, it is highly recommended, especially for businesses that handle sensitive data or are subject to data protection regulations like GDPR. Implementing an IGF helps organisations ensure data privacy, legal compliance, and efficient information management.

How can Our SME IGF benefit small businesses?

IGF can benefit small businesses by providing a structured framework for managing information effectively. It helps them safeguard sensitive data, comply with regulations, and establish best practices for information management. IGFs can be tailored to suit the resources and needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), making it a scalable and cost-effective solution.

What's the difference between Large Business IGF and SME IGF?

Large Business IGF is a comprehensive framework designed for larger enterprises with complex information management needs. SME IGF, on the other hand, is scaled down to suit the resources and requirements of small and medium-sized businesses. Both IGF versions provide structured approaches to information governance but are adapted to the size and complexity of the organisation.

How long does it take to implement an IGF?

The time required to implement an IGF varies depending on the size and complexity of the organisation and its existing information management practices. It typically involves several stages, including assessment, policy development, training, and ongoing monitoring. Implementation timelines can range from several weeks to several months.

What is the cost associated with IGF adoption?

The cost of adopting an IGF depends on various factors, including the size of the organisation, the complexity of its information management needs, and the level of customisation required. It may involve costs related to policy development, staff training, technology solutions, and ongoing monitoring. It's essential to work with an experienced IGF provider who can provide a tailored cost estimate based on your organisation's specific requirements.

Can Data Protection People provide IGF services internationally?

Yes, Data Protection People can provide IGF services internationally. Our expertise extends beyond the UK, and we can tailor Information Governance Frameworks to meet the needs of organisations worldwide. We have experience working with clients across different regions and industries.
