Traditional archivists, with a modern toolkit.
Thirty years in archives taught us one thing: the principles are timeless, but the tools should never stand still.
Why we started
We started The History Company because too many Australian organisations were struggling with archives that were incomplete, unsafe, or simply misunderstood. The same sentence kept coming up: "We know we need to archive, but we don't know how to do it properly."
With decades of combined experience in records management, digitisation, and preservation, we've supported organisations right across the country — from schools in Melbourne to associations in Sydney and families in regional towns.
Over the years we've helped schools pass audits, associations safeguard governance records, and families protect irreplaceable collections. Clients trust us because we make a complex requirement simple — and deliver systems that work in practice, not just on paper.
The principles behind every project
Make it simple
Archiving is genuinely complex. Our job is to absorb that complexity and hand you something clear and usable.
Built to standard
Everything we do aligns to AS ISO 15489 and the relevant state and national authorities — defensible and durable.
Works in practice
A system that only looks good on paper has failed. We design for the people who'll actually use it.
