From Backlogs to Breakthroughs: Transforming e-Records, FOIA, and e-Discovery in Government

Federal agencies are managing growing volumes of electronic records while facing rising expectations for transparency, security and accountability. At the same time, they must respond more quickly to FOIA requests, investigations, litigation and records management demands while protecting sensitive information and maintaining public trust. How are agencies modernizing the full lifecycle of digital information — from preservation and legal hold through collection, review and production — while reducing duplication, risk and operational bottlenecks?

Join Federal News Network for a timely discussion on the future of information governance across government. Experts will examine how agencies are balancing FOIA compliance, cybersecurity, privacy and classified data requirements, while using AI and automation to reduce backlogs, improve review processes and strengthen defensible decision-making. The conversation also will explore how workforce roles and skills are evolving in a more data-centric, technology-driven environment.

Learning objectives:

• Modernizing the preservation, collection, review and sharing of digital information
• Exploring how AI and automation presents opportunities for process transformation
• Examining the workforce development and skills needs
