About Andrew Warland

I am an experienced information management and Microsoft Office 365/SharePoint specialist with over four decades (since January 1982) of practical working knowledge across the full spectrum of information, records and content management issues with a strong focus on digital recordkeeping.

Since 2019 I have worked as an independent, freelance consultant. In that role I have advised, guided and presented to over 100 organisations, including Australian Federal, State and Local government agencies, private sector organisations, and a range of international organisations on approaches to managing records using Microsoft 365.
