CORPORATE SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT

Secretariat Document Management and File List

All Secretariat files are managed within the following Excel spreadsheet:

H:\Secretariat\Secretariat Operations Manual\Process\secretariat-files.xls

The file list has been adapted to implement the CGI Document Retention Policy.

The Procedure Manual covering both the Secretariat file system and the CGI Document Retention Policy is:

20060731.2 CGI Document Retention Policy Secretariat Document Management and File List

- Procedure Manual

Files include binders, record books and minute books. The most important binders and files are those that document key Secretariat procedures and processes and identified in the file list by an “X” in the “Procedure Manual” column.

File management:

To open a file, first re-sort the file so that all open and closed files are sorted by file number only. This is necessary to ensure that a new file is not assigned a number that is already assigned to a closed file. This type of sort is done using the file opening sort button:

If the file is related to one or more existing files, insert a new row at the level that you intend to insert the new file.

Assign the file number, then decompose the file number using the Level 1 to Level 6 fields to the right of the spreadsheet

Make sure that the following fields are filled in:

Category

File Number

File name

(O)pen / (C)losed

Active Location

File opening date Use the button to insert the current date

Classification fields: Confidentiality (either (C)onfidential or (R)estricted

Integrity: (H)igh

Availability: (L)ow (M)oderate or (H)igh. When a file is closed and sent to archives, availability should be set to (L)ow.

For more information on classification, see the CGI Information Classification Policy in Tab 3 of the Procedure Manual or in the Classification tab of the Secretariat files spreadsheet. The default classification for each category of Secretariat file is provided below.

Next, make sure to record the file number in the sort fields to the right of the file list. For instance, the result for a corporate file number C20070928.1.1.1.1.1 will be:

Level 1: C20070928

Level 2: 1

Level 3: 1

Level 4: 1

Level 5: 1

Level 6: 1

This last step is essential to allow the sorting programs to work properly.

For a new file in a category that is not related to any other file in the category, open the file at the top of the existing files in the category and assign the file number based on the current date. Thus, for a new corporate file opened on Friday, September 28, 2007, the file number will be “C20070928.1”. If several corporate files are to be opened on the same day (for instance 3 files) the file numbers will be “C20070928.1”, “C20070928.2”, and “C20070928.3”.

When there is a name change that occurs, open a new volume for existing file number, put a note in old beige folder referring to the new file number and create a new beige folder (for example - see name change of CGI-AMS Inc. to CGI Technologies and Solutions Inc. (C20040303.1.3.7) –

Don't forget to put a note in the comments column referring to the old name of the company for quick reference.

It is preferable to open the new file as of today rather than above the previous company name date, in order to facilitate the physical filing."

When closing a file, fill in the following fields:

(O)pen / (C)losed

Archive Location

File closing date
