Meeting the Latest Industry Standards
The Department of Defense and Intelligence Community are currently navigating a complex landscape shaped by numerous emerging trends that significantly impact their operational paradigms and strategic directions. Feith can help.
01
Data Overload and Utilization: In an era where data is generated at an unprecedented scale, defense and intelligence agencies grapple with the challenge of turning vast amounts of information into actionable intelligence. The key lies in sophisticated document and records management systems that not only store data securely but also make it easily retrievable and analyzable.
02
Technological Advancements: Confronting the challenges of rapid technological evolution, government sectors, particularly defense and intelligence, face the imperative to modernize information management systems. Feith Systems addresses this need by harnessing advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and cloud computing.
03
Cybersecurity and Information Assurance: As adversaries employ increasingly sophisticated methods to target national security information, the importance of robust cybersecurity measures and information assurance protocols cannot be overstated. Our solutions are engineered to provide maximum protection against cyber threats, ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of critical data.
Alignment with Mandates and Strategies
At Feith, we are deeply committed to delivering software solutions that are not only tailored for government operations but are also built upon the bedrock of the most stringent requirements found in the defense and intelligence sectors. Our technology stack is developed and continuously refined under the pressure of the nation’s toughest standards, ensuring our solutions perform optimally within the high-stakes environments of defense and intelligence agencies. This software design allows us to meet—and often exceed—the complex operational needs and security demands that these critical organizations require.
DoD Records Strategy
The 2023 DoD Records Strategy sets forth a transformative approach to records management within the Department of Defense, aiming to enhance the governance, automation, and accessibility of records to support strategic decision-making and operational efficacy.
Record Curation Excellence: Our solutions are designed to provide exceptional record curation by employing advanced data tagging and classification technologies. By integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms, our systems are capable of analyzing, categorizing, and enriching records with metadata that not only enhances their discoverability but also ensures their relevance and contextual integrity throughout their lifecycle. This systematic curation process is aligned with the DoD’s vision of utilizing records as dynamic assets for decision support, ensuring that these records remain informative across all levels of operation.
Advanced Automation in Records Management: Leveraging sophisticated automation frameworks, our software reduces the need for manual record handling by automating the entire lifecycle of records—from creation, through active management, to eventual archiving or disposal. This automation extends to complex workflows, including automated alerts for retention policy changes, proactive compliance checks, and seamless integration with existing DoD systems to ensure continuous alignment with updated DoD directives.
Lifecycle Governance and Compliance: We provide a governance model that encompasses rigorous audit trails, permission management, and compliance monitoring to ensure that every phase of the records lifecycle is under strict surveillance and control. This model not only ensures compliance with DoD standards but also instills a high level of confidence in the systematic and secure handling of sensitive information, thereby upholding the integrity required for records tasked with national security implications.
Strategic Adherence to DoD Records Schedule: Our systems are designed to align with the DoD Records Schedule, automatically updating and applying retention periods as dictated by legal and policy changes. Feith’s Retention Schedule Administrator module adjusts to the evolving legal landscape of DoD, ensuring that all records management practices are compliant and up-to-date, thus reinforcing our role as a dependable partner in maintaining national security.
DoDM 8180.01
DoDM 8180.01 explains stringent standards for the management of electronic records, emphasizing efficiency, security, and integrity to support the operations of the Department of Defense.
Retention Planning and Metadata Management: Our retention planning and metadata management capabilities are engineered to offer precision and granularity, complying with the DoD’s detailed retention schedules. We employ sophisticated metadata frameworks that facilitate not only the categorization and storage of information but also ensure its easy retrieval and systematic disposition, all while maintaining the utmost data integrity throughout its lifecycle.
Automated Capture and Classification: Our automated systems enhance data capture and classification processes using advanced algorithms that accurately identify, classify, and tag records. This capability not only increases the efficiency of data handling but also supports the DoD’s goal of leveraging technology to improve records management processes, ensuring that data is handled in a manner that is both time-efficient and reduces the possibility of human error.
Secure Storage and Accessibility: Our solutions offer secure, encrypted storage environments that meet the DoD’s rigorous standards for data integrity and security. These solutions support both on-premise and cloud-based deployments, ensuring that data is not only secure from unauthorized access but also readily accessible to authorized users within a zero-trust security framework, facilitating both immediate operational needs and long-term strategic planning.
Controlled Disposition and Maintenance: The systems facilitate a controlled, policy-driven disposition of records according to DoD schedules, which includes automated archival processes and secure deletion protocols to ensure compliance and data integrity throughout technological and organizational changes.
Access Control and Security Protocols: In strict compliance with DoDM 8180.01, our systems implement comprehensive access controls and layered security protocols, including multi-factor authentication, role-based access control, and continuous monitoring of access patterns. These security measures are designed to safeguard sensitive data, ensuring that it is accessible only by authorized personnel and maintaining its confidentiality and integrity against potential security threats.

Feith Stands Apart
Feith Systems is recognized and esteemed by global Defense and Intelligence entities. The Pentagon awarded DeCA the DoD CIO Award for their Feith RMA iQ rollout. Describing DeCA’s successful project, the Chief Information Officer of the DoD, Dana Deasy, celebrated the agency’s “successful transition to electronic records with a fully integrated, fully automated, and cost savings records management solution that fosters rapid information sharing across the
Defense Commissary Agency.”
Feith’s engagements with the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Intelligence Community (IC) have marked several “firsts” in terms of technology deployment and process innovation. We were pioneers in adopting advanced data lifecycle management solutions specifically designed for the stringent security requirements of these sectors. Our commitment is to handle the complexities of information management, allowing these agencies to focus their resources on the critical tasks of identifying, preventing, and neutralizing threats.
