SUBJECT:

ACTION:

REVISED MTA RECORDS RETENTION SCHEDULE

APPROVE THE LATEST REVISION OF THE MTA RECORDSRETENTION SCHEDULE

RECOMMENDATION

Approve revisions to the MTA Records Retention Schedule (Attachment B).

ISSUE

The Public Utilities Code, Section 130051.23, states that the LACMTA must maintainrecords that are used for operational, financial, and legal reasons. In order to complywith this Code, the MTA Board originally approved the MTA Records RetentionSchedule on May 24, 1995. Subsequent revisions have been approved by the Board,with the latest revision approved on September 28, 1998.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS

The revised schedule has been approved by General Counsel and appropriateDeparmaent Heads. This schedule is the instrument for complying with the PublicUtilities Code, as well as for satisfying the MTA’s basic records management needs. I~Ishould be emphasized that, in accordance with the Public Utilities Code, no significantMTA records have been destroyed without first being copied to durable and legible

media.

For this schedule to remain a valid, living document, it must be continually revised toreflect current law and administrative needs. Although this year there were no changesin the law necessitating a revision of the schedule, several departments have requestedmodifications for administrative purposes. Several records series were consolidated tostreamline the schedule and eliminate unnecessm3r categories. In addition, severalchanges were requested because functions have been reorganized. Attachment A reflectsa detailed explanation of the changes. The proposed modifications are categorized intothose that will affect the retention period, of which there are five, and those that will notaffect the retention period. This latter group includes such modifications as

Page 2: SEPTEMBER 16,1999 SUBJECT: REVISED MTA RECORDS RETENTION ...boardarchives.metro.net/Items/1999/09_September/Items_A_0113.pdf · september 16,1999 subject: action: revised mta records

consolidations of records series that contain duplicate information. There are eleven changes whichfail into this latter category.

OPTIONS

Not revise the schedule. This is not recommended because the schedule would not reflect theadministrative requirements prompting this revision.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

Although severai of the recommended revisions will lengthen retention periods, the additional off.-site storage cost will be nominal.

DISCUSSION

The revised schedule will benefit the MTA in three ways:

Avoiding the cost to maintain records with no further vaiue by disposing of those that areobsolete while moving those that are inactive to less expensive off-site storage.

¯ Increasing staff productivity by reducing the impediment of maintaining outdated, irrelevantmaterials and by ensuring that records are maintained as long as they are needed for operationalpurposes.

¯ Identifying and safeguarding "vital records" (those required for the resumption and continuationof business in the event of a disaster).

NEXT STEPS

If the Public Utilities Code is changed, or if legal or administrative requirements necessitaterevisions to the Records Retention Schedule, staffwill seek appropriate Board approval.

Attachment AExplanation of Changes

CHANGES AFFECTING RETENTION PERIODConsolidate EMPLOYEE PERSONNEL FILE (OPDW/NON-MEDICAL)/I-ILrM3001 withEMPLOYEE PERSONNEL FILE/HIYM3000

Current retention = 5 years total.

Revised retention = Term of employment plus 5years

Decrease retention period for EMPLOYEEPERSONNEL FILE/HUM3000:

Current retention = Term of employment + 6 years

Revised retention = Term of employment + 5 years

Consolidate PROTEST FILE/CON3000 withCONTRACT PAYMENT/PERF/ADMIN (PRE- POST-AWARD)/CON2000

Cttrrent retention = While Active + 3 years

Revised retention = Indefinite

Change Series Title from CONTRACTOR INFOSTATEMENT/CON4000 to CONTRACTOR PRE-QUALIFICATION RECORDS/CON4000 andchange Office of Record to MASD. Increaseretention period:

Current retention = While Active

Revised retention = 5 years

Increase retention period for BUDGET SUPPORTDOCUMENTS/FIN9001:

Current retention = While Active + 2 years

Revised retention = While Active + 6 years

Transportation Department requested that theretention period for personnel files maintained atthe operating divisions be increased to the sameperiod as that of all other personnel files -- lengthof employment plus 5 years. Currently, theapproved retention period requires the files to bepurged every 5 years. Maintaining personnel filesfor only 5 years does not allow for sufficientemployee history, especially in cases wheredisciplinary action is required. Increasing theretention period alleviates this problem.

Decreasing the retention period by one year is acost-savings change to mitigate increasing theretention period for operating division personnelfiles. It is anticipated that records from several ofthe operating divisions will be sent to off-sitestorage. Human Resources management hasdetermined that decreasing the total retentionperiod from 6 years after termination to 5 yearsafter termination will have no negative impact.

The Procurement Policies & Procedures DeskInstructions specifies that the protest file ismaintained as part of the official contract file andnot as a separate document type with a differentretention period.

Contractor information statements, previouslymaintained by Procurement, have been replacedfunctionally by Contractor Pre-Qualificationrecords. Management Audit Services Department(MASD) has replaced Procurement as the Office Record. MASD requested a 5 year retentionperiod.

During the past year it was noted that Budgetsupport documents have reference value for alonger period than previously demonstrated.

Attachment A Page 2 of 2

CHANGES NOT AFFECTING RETENTION PERIODSConsolidate ACCT INFORMATION There are currently two series that serve the sameRPTS/ACC3000 with ACCTING GEN/ACC1000 function - one series is being eliminated.

Add "PRE- & POST-AWARD" to CONTRACT Clarifies contents of official contract file consistentPAYMENT/PERF/ADMIN/CON2000 with Procurement Policies & Procedures Desk

Instructions

Consolidate PURCHASING/FIN7000 with Clarifies contents of official contract file consistentCON2000 with Procurement Policies & Procedures Desk

Instructions

Change Retention Category & Office of Record:

Current = PURCHASING (UNSUCCESSFUL BIDS& PROPOSALS)/FIN7000 under Procurement

Revised = CO~CT LOSINGPROPOSALS/BIDS/CON2001 under ContractsChange Retention Category & Office of Record:

Current = PURCHASE ORDERS/FIN7002 underProcurement

Revised = PURCHASE ORDERS/CON2002 underContractsConsolidate BANK STATEMENTS/FIN1002 withBANKING/FIN 1001

Consolidate LIQUIDATED PROPERTY FILES/LEG2001 and PROPERTY ACQUISITION/LEG2002 with REAL ESTATE/LEG2000

Revise Years Active & Years Inactive forBANKING/FIN1001:

Current Years Active = 3; Years Inactive = 3

Revised Years Active = 2; Years Inactive = 4

This is to clarify and correct inconsistency in thecurrent schedule in naming the category and officeof record for contractual documents

This is to clarify and correct inconsistency in thecurrent schedule in naming the category and officeof record for contractual documents.

Since all banking records are maintained for thesame period, there is no need for a separate seriesfor bank statements.

Since all real estate records have the sameretention period, there is no need for separateseries for individual types of real estate records.

Finance department does not have sufficient on-site storage space so records are being transferredoff-site one year earlier. The total retentionremains at 6 years
