Case Study: United States government agency achieves DoD 5015.2-compliant SharePoint records and faster FOIA response with Gimmal

Major Government Entity Secures Records with DoD 5015.2-Compliant Records Management Software

United States Government Agency, a large federal organization with over 240,000 employees spanning aviation, security, emergency response and cybersecurity, struggled with fragmented repositories, poor findability, and the need to secure records to DoD 5015.2 standards while improving FOIA response times. To address this, the agency chose Gimmal and implemented Gimmal Federal Records Management to turn SharePoint into a centralized, compliant records repository.

Gimmal migrated and consolidated the agency’s dispersed content into a DoD 5015.2‑compliant SharePoint environment, enabling secure storage, reliable search, and disposition of over 30,000 documents. As a result, FOIA turnaround times fell from days to hours—saving taxpayers millions and delivering a complete return on investment within one year—while allowing the agency to retire disconnected systems and redeploy prior technology investments.
