Michigan law requires each department director to designate someone to serve as their department's Records Management Officers (RMO). RMOs help the Records Management Services coordinate the records management activities of their department, and they are the primary contact person for departmental employees.
RMO Duties:
Coordinate agency review of disposal notices
Identify issues/needs that need to be addressed by the Records Management Services
Resolve internal issues identified by Records Management Services
Assist agency staff with following records management procedures
Be involved with decisions affecting records management within their agency
The Records Analysts employed by the Records Management Services are assigned specific departments to work with. This allows the Records Analysts to build relationships with the departmental employees and to develop a thorough understanding of departmental functions. The Records Analysts work closely with the RMOs to provide services to each department.
