For many organizations, ensuring compliance and managing content lifecycles in a digital environment have long been challenging. Traditional document management systems often lack the flexibility and user-friendliness needed to promote widespread adoption, leading to scattered or poorly managed information. This is where Microsoft Purview's Retention Labelling and Records Management capabilities can reshape the way organisations govern and retain data.


Retention labelling allows organisations to implement effective, streamlined content governance strategies across Microsoft 365, transforming how they manage communications, documents, and semi-structured data in SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, and Exchange. With AI-driven automation, targeted inheritance, and intelligent rule applications, Purview enables organizations to meet compliance requirements without overwhelming users with manual tasks or complex processes.


By integrating capabilities such as Sensitive Information Types (SIT) and Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Purview facilitates comprehensive retention management and data control at scale. Spoke supports this process by working with Information and Records Managers to translate organisational retention schedules into effective Purview configurations, establishing an operational framework that aligns with best practices in information management.


Our services help:

  • Define and implement retention labels and configurations aligned with your Disposal Authority and Retention Schedule.

  • Establish an operational framework and support artifacts to enable business-as-usual governance.

  • Provide deployment assistance for core departments, enabling secure and compliant information management tailored to your organization’s needs.


With Microsoft Purview, organizations can achieve robust content lifecycle management that’s both compliant and sustainable, positioning them for efficient data governance in the long term.
