The Winthrop Group was founded in 1982 in Cambridge, Massachusetts and has worked with more than 350 clients located in more than 25 states and 10 countries in addition to the U.S. Represented among our clients are Fortune 100 corporations and privately held companies, foundations, a range of non-profit and cultural organizations, educational institutions, municipal governments, private families, politicians, and artists. The firm’s Information & Archival Services (I&AS) practice, which was formed in 1979 as a private consultancy rooted in corporate and organization archives, joined Winthrop’s Histories & Consulting in 1989 to become The Winthrop Group, Inc.
The Information and Archival Services practice provides professional services and expertise on a consulting and contract basis, as well as on-going management through retainer arrangments to a roster of 30+ active clients. Based in New York City, Winthrop currently employs 36 full-time professionals including archivists in New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, Washington, and Oregon. Our services range from the establishment and maintenance of archives, large-scale processing projects, digital initiatives (e.g. digitization, digital asset management, digital preservation), development of archival and records retention systems, oral history projects, and relocating archival collections.
Winthrop professionals are practiced at discerning what is required to meet the specific needs of each client, to ensure identification and efficient retrieval of significant documentation and information, and to develop practical and affordable solutions. We are accustomed to working with records in a wide variety of formats and collaborating with clients to achieve project objectives.
Winthrop has provided archival services to a wide variety of sectors, from financial services, consumer products, food and beverages, manufacturing, and professional services firms to arts organizations, museums and not-for-profit organizations and foundations, to religious and academic institutions, to non-governmental organizations.
