Problem-Oriented Assessments in Archives Management and an Extensive Archival Maturity Model Design

Abstract

In this chapter, the author examines maturity models from archival literature, addressing first and foremost the preservation of (digital) archival materials. Next, the author analyzes selected capability and maturity instruments from the author's own experience. All those models from literature and practice are problem-oriented, so they do not apply to all situations in archives. Subsequently, the author addresses the need to develop a more extensive maturity model for archives management by employing methods that combine recent approaches to designing maturity models and then undertakes the first phase of developing such a tool. The author demonstrates how maturity models can support improvement work (on the example of the model from literature and the digital archival system from practice). Finally, the author announces further development of the proposed extensive maturity model for archives management.
