The RMLO serves as contact between the agency and which program?

• A. The Records and Information Management Program of the Florida Department of State
• B. The State Auditor's Office
• C. The Department of Transportation
• D. The Department of Education

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that the RMLO acts as the bridge to the state's official records management framework. The Records and Information Management Program of the Florida Department of State provides statewide guidance, retention schedules, and policies for how agencies should manage their records. The RMLO’s role is to be the agency’s primary contact with that program, ensuring compliance, coordinating records retention, disposal, and preservation, and implementing statewide standards within the agency. The other entities are involved in different functions—auditing by the State Auditor’s Office, or operations within other agencies like the Department of Transportation or Department of Education—so they are not the program the RMLO connects to.
