LMI brings its data science and technical expertise to cultural heritage initiatives, aiding clients in accurate identification, conservation and preservation of objects including archival documents. Our services range from program planning and implementation to risk mitigation, data interpretation, and helping our clients manage capital investments, operating budgets, timelines, and other core functions in large-scale cultural heritage projects. We develop customized goal metrics and reporting tools to support accountability and impact. We assist our clients in aligning their projects with international cultural preservation standards including natural and built environments, artifact conservation and care, and object and documentation preservation management. We also provide strategic support to help our clients align their projects with their public engagement (local, regional, and international), academic and research collaboration, and economic and cultural development goals.

Our design and implementations of record management enable accurate and auditable information storage and retrieval with high utility and support, collaborations internally and with other governments, research and education, and private sector stakeholders. Designs are based on industry-standard data integrity infrastructures, are built to support data sovereignty needs, and incorporate forensic-level chain of custody protocols for tangible and intangible assets and IP.

As a subset of data management, LMI through its technology subsidiary develops and applies advanced scientific tools and methodologies to support cultural heritage projects. These utilities identify, catalog, and classify objects including documents across the fundamental goals of legal and historical veracity and with protected access to information. The tools we deploy for our clients include developing taxonomies, classification, and indexing systems to support specific collection needs.

LMI helps clients to craft messages that properly amplify the client’s cultural heritage objectives, with consistent and credible messaging across digital and traditional platforms. Our services include designing and implementing preventive and responsive crisis management strategies, working with media management resources retained by the client or that LMI brings to the project on request to assure that the core elements of the project are accurately integrated into an overall media management strategy.

LMI helps clients to establish policies and structures matching their cultural heritage project goals including charitable organization formation and implementing best-in-class governance and operational protocols, recognizing the unique aspects of the cultural heritage sector. Our services include installing compliance protocols and developing and overseeing a staged progression in which LMI steps out of the process, and integrating financial, tax compliance and audit processes appropriate to the cultural heritage sector.
