Assalamualaikum wrt wbt.....
Dear all....
Electronic Records Keeping System@Software (ERMS) is implemented and served to cater for the MAINTENANCE of records. It is not purchased, installed, used and implemented in organization wide operation at one time and when there is new software, we can just simply abandoned the existing one and installed the new one.....it is not like changing/throwing our clothes when we no longer need it.....
It is not that simple. We are talking about the the longevity of records over time, the continuous access of records of evident value and national heritage purposes..... we are concerned about organization top secret documents, classified records or even daily records created from online or semi online transactions. We are talking about personal records that should not be disclosed to others as well as records restricted by law and specific acts. Having one system of electronic record keeping and change it with another out of no concrete and highly justifiable reasons are detrimental to the management of authentic and reliable records that can be accessible over time. Changing the system is a prelude to leaking of critical information to others.
This blog is a sharing platform for interested individuals, records managers, records practitioners, records professionals, parties, organization dealing with records management and touches upon the issues around it! It is penned to discuss and point out relevant discussion that could bring fruitful understanding on records management to all of us! We welcome inputs and comments that could bring good to this field in Malaysia! Everybody is welcome!
