The system in one paragraph: every file lives in one of five top folders, every project folder starts with its year and project number, and every file name starts with a date. Nothing is deleted during cleanup; old files move to an Archive folder for 90 days first. You can find any project in two clicks.

THE FIVE TOP FOLDERS

  1. 01 Projects
  2. 02 Proposals
  3. 03 Admin (HR, finance, insurance)
  4. 04 Library (standards, templates, product sheets)
  5. 99 Archive

PROJECT FOLDERS

Format: year-projectnumber-client-short name

Example: 2026-118-Harmon-Lake House

Inside every project, the same 6 folders:

  1. 01 Contract
  2. 02 Drawings
  3. 03 Photos
  4. 04 Consultants
  5. 05 Permits
  6. 06 Closeout

FILE NAMES

Date first, so files sort themselves:

2026-10-28 Harmon floor plan v3.pdf

2026-11-02 Harmon permit set.pdf

No "final," no "new." Use v1, v2, v3.

THE CLEANUP, STEP BY STEP

  1. Week 1: Make the new folders. Don't move anything yet.
  2. Week 2: Move active projects (about 30). Each project lead moves their own.
  3. Week 3: Move everything else to 99 Archive, in its old structure.
  4. Week 4: Anyone who needs an old file pulls it into the new structure.
  5. After 90 days: Review the Archive. Anything not opened gets backed up to an external drive.

WHAT I FOUND

  • 41,200 files, 380 GB.
  • About 6,800 likely duplicates (same name and size).
  • 112 folders with "final" in the name.

THREE QUESTIONS

  1. Do project numbers already exist, or should we start them?
  2. Who can delete from the Archive after 90 days?
  3. Are there client files you're legally required to keep for a set number of years?
