About DoD 5015.2 STD
The US DoD 5015.2 STD is the accepted design criteria for electronic records management software applications. The 5015.2 standard defines the mandatory operational, legislative, and regulatory requirements that must be met by the records management application products acquired by the Department of Defense. To receive the sought-after DoD certification, a product must comply with 147 rigorous mandatory requirements, provide the infrastructure for a corporate file plan that includes all forms of electronic and physical documents, and also provide a retention plan that incorporates both time- and event-driven disposition instructions.
The Defense Information Systems Agency’s Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) performs the Records Management Application (RMA) Certification test of RMA products for compliance with DoD 5015.2 STD. It is DoD policy that only certified products be acquired by DoD organizations. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has endorsed the JITC RMA Certification Testing Program.
