RESULTS
STATINTL As a result bf ction in promoting the development of flex-
ible and realistic'?; records management standards and programs, the Agency
has been able to dope successfully with a tremendous increase in volume of
communications, documents, films, and photographs resulting from the ac-
celerated tempo of cold and hot war activities. In addition, he has initiated
aggressive programs to meet the new Paperwork Management requirements
of expanding electronic data processing operations. Through the ready avail-
ability of records and he strearylining of methods and procedures, emergency
requests in support of ourrent/operations are invariably filled expeditiously by
the Agency Records Cener..
By the development of model Vital Records Program guaranteeing the
current selection, protedtio~, and availability of essential records, the
successful continuationy;of .intelligence support to the President is assured in
time of enemy attack:or natura \ disaster.
In addition to the important savings to CIA in man-hours, equipment,
STATINTL supplies, and space that have resulted from I efforts, significant
savings have also been achieved throughout the Intelligence Community through
his program to1bliminate retired records in all intelligence agencies where
they duplicate/those of the originating agency.
