Is SharePoint's Record Management certified to any standard?

Question

Is SharePoint's Record Management certified to any standard?

Standards like the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) 5015.02.

Answer 1

SharePoint per se, it is not actually buit to follow the exact regulations for a particular standard but it does confer capabilities to support many standards, through the actual solution built on top of it, for which there are many, such as http://sharepointrecordsmanagement.com/tag/sharepoint-2010-dod-5015-2-certification/.

If you read at AIIM, you'll understand better http://www.aiim.org/community/blogs/expert/DoD-50152-Certification-and-SharePoint-2010 & http://www.aiim.org/community/blogs/expert/5-myths-about-sharepoint-records-management

Answer 2

Microsoft have also published a case study in regards to SP2010 being used by the US Department of Agriculture. It can be found here: -

Answer 3

So far as I understand it's not certified to any standard, but there's at least one third-party solution that is certified 5015.02, and others that are enough for most needs. I went to a talk by Bruce Miller on the subject a couple months ago - here are some of his points:
