The structure and character of the future archive should be agreed on and understood by all concerned, including the expected final content of the archive and how it will be managed, see [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 3. Principles.

A selection strategy should be agreed at the project planning stage. This should set out the criteria for selecting records, documents, data files and materials (finds) for inclusion in the project archive. It should also set out how things that have not been selected for archive will be dispersed or discarded. This strategy should be devised in accordance with the project research aims or management questions (see [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 5). Account should be taken of any national, regional or local research frameworks and also of the collecting policies of the recipient repository.

It is vital that security or disaster management plans are devised and implemented that safeguard the archive, and also potential archive components, from damage and loss (see [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 5). Such plans, which could be a part of the disaster management plan for the project itself, should be included in the planning documentation.

At the planning stage the tasks and resources required for the project will be identified and allocated and it is important that the needs of the archiving process are included in these plans (see [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 4).

Project staff and researchers will need to access the archive contents both during and after the lifetime of the project. It is therefore important to document, organise and index the documentary and material (finds) archive in order to keep it comprehendible and accessible (See [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 3). The following practices should be employed throughout the lifecycle of the project, with the resulting documentation also becoming part of the archive.

It is essential to ensure that all the elements of an archive form a seamless whole facilitating movement between each part of the archive. For example, it must be possible to make connections between context records, finds records and photographs and one should also be able to trace individual finds back to the context, layer, trench and location. It should also be possible to research parallels in the wider archaeological record (See [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 3). This is a duty not only for the project manager but for the project team as a whole:

Archiving is a process that aims to preserve information and material for posterity. The physical products of an archaeological project are unique and irreplaceable; therefore the project team should ensure that adequate care is taken of it from the project outset. Procedures and practices should be followed which promote the lifespan of the archive (see [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 3):

The curator of the recipient repository/repositories should be involved in the project from the planning stage and the project should follow the repository’s deposition guidance from the outset in order that preparation for transfer will be easy (see [STANDARDS for archaeological archiving] Chapter 3). The following should be standard for any submission:
