Data Stewardship Programme

The DPTS Data Stewardship Programme delivers data archiving and preservation services to the highest level of assurance. With DPTS, your business can rely on powerful and secure access to digital data, now and in the future. 

Of course, all media deteriorates over a period of time. Recording devices may fail, they might be difficult and expensive to repair, and technology changes rapidly. The DPTS Data Stewardship Programme Methodology can help you deal with these threats.

Two copies of the client's digital data are preserved on two distinct current and proven media and recording technologies. The media and recording devices chosen will be those most beneficial to the client, and in common use throughout the industry. Both media sets are stored in a secure facility, temperature and humidity controlled, FM-200 fire-protected and monitored regularly. 

DPTS will monitor technology trends, alerting you to potential problems related to each media. If any media is deteriorating or becoming obsolete, we shall proactively migrate the client's data to a better media at no extra cost.

At the end of the Stewardship Programme, we guarantee your digital data will be residing on a newer media technology than it was at the start.
