​Approved Secondary Storage Providers

We have certified the following secondary storage providers as Approved Secondary Storage Providers (ASSP).

Before August 2019, we certified providers under Guideline 13: Certification for secondary storage providers.

From September 2019, we will certify providers under the Physical Storage Technical Standard. This new Standard merges three Guidelines (Guideline 11: Physical Storage of State Records, Guideline 13: Certification for secondary storage providers and Guideline 23 Certification of Places of Deposit of State Archives.)

The State Archivist approves certification, and it is current for two years. Renewal of certification is for a further two years. The inspection process is ongoing, and some providers are working towards certification.

We encourage you to contact the Office of the State Archivist before renewing existing or entering into new contract negotiations with providers. 

Information for providers seeking certification is in the Pre-inspection Checklist for Secondary Storage Providers.
