The MAMPU employees’ IWB and OMIS were verified and conceptualized. The results indicate the all dimensions of ORU are applicable in the context of Government to Employees (G2E) and e- records management system.

The conceptualized determinants and impacts of IWB were validated and substantiated.

INTRODUCTION The concept of organizational memory (OM) has been mooted by Duncan and Weis (1979) who described OM as corporate, organizational and enterprise wide knowledge base. OM main function is to define information or knowledge type to be managed and the processes of capture, retain, access and usage of knowledge in the organization (Guerrero & Pino, 2001). One main drawback about OM is how it is applied in the organizations and how to measure the improvement of organizational effectiveness. The role of the organizational memory system (OMS) is visible when it comes to retaining organizational knowledge. This organizational knowledge includes manual, process, standard operating procedures, codified tacit knowledge
