Case Study: a US based parent organisation achieves secure legacy data divestment with OASIS Group

Extracting the Value from Legacy Data

The US based parent organisation faced a significant challenge during the divestment of several UK companies. With over 18,000 boxes of legacy data lacking proper metadata, the valuable commercial information within was inaccessible and could not be assigned to the correct businesses for sale. They engaged OASIS Group to resolve this issue.

OASIS Group designed and implemented a bespoke workflow, utilizing designated software to automate the review process. This allowed them to successfully categorize all 18,000 boxes, completing the project in half the estimated time. The solution resulted in 80% of the material being identified for secure destruction, leading to significant cost savings and ensuring all data was either transferred appropriately or destroyed.
