Short answer

Authorized staff set retention from applicable needs. Assign an owner and backup for each record type; test retrieval by container and trip ID.

Forever is not an organized archive. Authorized staff set retention.

Raw data, reports and decision records differ. Keeping only one can lose context or the ability to review.

Assign an owner, storage, access and backup to each record type. Link file names to container and trip identity.

Do not copy a period from general habit. Set it from applicable requirements and test sample archive retrieval.
