RAM Management programmes overview

Our Programmes

Three programmes.
One administrative foundation.

Each programme addresses a distinct layer of how a Canadian office operates — correspondence, records, and cross-department flow. They can be taken individually or in sequence.

01 Our Approach — How each engagement is structured

Assessment before recommendation

Each engagement begins with a review of your current situation. For correspondence work, we read samples from your team. For records work, we inventory what you currently hold. For process advisory, we interview the people who do the work. Recommendations follow the assessment, not precede it.

We follow this sequence because the deliverables need to fit your office specifically. A style guide written around your actual correspondence is more useful than a generic one. A records structure built around your actual holdings is less disruptive to implement.

01

Initial scoping call

We discuss your office, its size, and which programme is most relevant to your current needs.

02

Assessment phase

We review samples, inventory holdings, or conduct interviews depending on the programme.

03

Delivery phase

Sessions, workshops, or advisory work delivered according to the programme timeline.

04

Handover and support

Written deliverables are handed over with post-handover support as defined in the programme scope.

06 Standards — What applies across all three programmes

Written scope before work begins

Every engagement is defined in writing. Deliverables, timeline, and what is outside scope are confirmed before any work starts.

Confidentiality provisions

Client correspondence, file structures, and process information are handled under confidentiality and are not referenced externally.

Bilingual by default

All written deliverables across all programmes are produced in both French and English as a standard, not an optional add-on.

Clean, defined handover

Each programme has a defined end point. Ongoing work with RAM Management after delivery is not required for the deliverables to remain useful.
