In consideration of the drastic transformation of records management environments, this study aims to suggest the directions for redesigning the electronic records management policies at a national level. First, it clarifies the four implicit objectives of electronic records management policies since the 2006 amendment of the Public Records Management Act, such as comprehensiveness for ensuring the appropriate management of any type of digital records, digital-friendly processes for records management, proper management for guaranteeing the evidential value of digital records, and long-term preservation of digital records. Second, it examines the challenging environmental factors in the areas since 2006. Third, it reviews the achievement of the policies as well as failures based on analyzing the policy documents and data from the National Archives of Korea. Fourth and finally, it suggests core areas and directions for redesigning the electronic records management policies, emphasizing the inclusiveness for data-type electronic records.

The work environment that produces and preserves records is changing in the digital transformation era, going beyond the new technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The electronic records management strategy in the archives must be prepared according to the technology, policy, and environmental changes related to overall records management of the era. Based on this, the basic environment in which the public can access records can be created by preserving the value of records. This study analyzes the direction of changes and strategies of records management in the digital environment and the direction of electronic records management strategies of the National Archives & Records Administration (NARA) in the United States, the National Archives of Australia (NAA), and the National Archives of Korea (NAK). Based on the analysis, the study suggests policies, facilities, and personnel elements as the core of the national electronic records management strategy and direction in the digital era.

Externally, business environment in public institution has being changed as government business reference model(BRM) appeared and business management systems for transparency of a policy decision process are introduced. After Records Automation System started its operation, dissatisfaction grows because of inadequacy in system function and the problems about authenticity of electronic records. With these backgrounds, National Archives and Records Service had carried out 'Information Strategy Planning for Reform to Records Management System' for 5 months from September, 2005. As result, this project reengineers current records management processes and presents the world-class system model. After Records and Archives Management Act was made, the records management in public institution has propelled the concept that paper records are handled by means of the electric data management. In this reformed model, however, we concentrates on the electric records, which have gradually replaced the paper records and investigate on the management methodology considering attributes of electric records. According to this new paradigm, the electric records management raises a new issue in the records management territory. As the major contents of the models connecting with electric records management were analyzed and their significance and bounds were closely reviewed, the aim of this paper is the understanding of the future bearings of the management system. Before the analysis of the reformed models, issues in new business environments and their records management were reviewed. The government's BRM and Business management system prepared the general basis that can manage government's whole results on the online and classify them according to its function. In this points, the model is innovative. However considering the records management, problems such as division into Records Classification, definitions and capturing methods of records management objects, limitations of Records Automation System and so on was identified. For solving these problems, the reformed models that has a records classification system based on the business classification, extended electronic records filing system, added functions for strengthening electric records management and so on was proposed. As regards dramatically improving the role of records center in public institution, searching for the basic management methodology of the records management object from various agency and introducing the detail design to keep documents' authenticity, this model forms the basis of the electric records management system. In spite of these innovations, however, the proposed system for real electric records management era is still in its beginning. In near feature, when the studies is concentrated upon the progress of qualified classifications, records capturing plans for foreign records structures such like administration information system, the further study of the previous preservation technology, the developed prospective of electric records management system will be very bright.

With changes of information environment on records managements, ERMS can be a suitable solution for managing multi-typed records. In this point, this study performed analysis and design of ERMS based on key functions and requirements to perform creation, preservation, management and use of electronic records. Especially, this study focused on interoperability with the related systems, security issues and back-up methods for secured preservation and management including fundamental requirements. Also, ERMS has a close relation with related systems such as intranet system, electronic document settlement system, and so on. compared to digital library managing information resources. Considering those features mentioned above, this study proposes functional requirements and a system architecture of ERMS which is satisfied with four characteristics of electronic records mentioned on ISO 15489 and environmental requirements.

In this study, we propose a logical transfer method of records using cloud storage to solve the integrity problem of digital component, which is generated when electronic records are transferred from the electronic record production system to the record management system. This method, which produces electronic records using cloud storage from the production stage and transfers them to the archives, has the following advantages. First, as a record management method, it can be effectively applied in public institutions by utilizing cloud computing technology, which has been the trend recently. Second, unlike the existing method of copying and physically transferring electronic records, the proposed method can reduce various risk factors that may occur in the transfer of electronic records by logically transferring the storage. Third, the method can prevent errors of the digital component according to the physical transfer of the electronic record; hence, the integrity of the electronic record can be guaranteed. Fourth, administrative power and cost that are wasted because of the electronic transfer of electronic records can be reduced.

The introduction of new technologies is a result of the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the change from management environment to cloud environment. Changes in the production and management environments are expected because of changes in the external environment. However, responding flexibly to changes is not enough. The problem of the records management process, system, and infrastructure is intertwined, and partial reorganization is difficult to cope with changes in the external environment. Therefore, we need to redesign the whole process and study the major issues to be considered so we could redesign the process and produce an improved next-generation electronic records management.
