Abstract:

This paper has highlighted the model verification technique used in the study of preserving the e-records event history metadata. The preservation of electronic records event history metadata (PEREHM) model has act as a solution in solving the issues on unavailability of electronic records (e-records) event history metadata model. In ensuring the ten (10) selected elements on the PEREHM Model were viable, the verification process need to be conducted. In the achieving the verification and approval on the PEREHM Model, a Delphi technique was being adopted. This technique has been used in identifying the group of experts that will become the key personnel in verifying the elements of PEREHM Model. After the group of experts has been identified, Face to Face (F2F) interview technique has been used in this study. This was to ensure each of the process of verifying the model elements can reach to maximum result during the verification session. Then, through collective verification statement from the experts, the Atlas ti software has been used in analyzing the findings. This is where the interpretivism technique has been applied. At the end of this paper, it will present the findings from the expert’s verification statement. On top of this, the problem identification (Phase 1) and steps in constructing the model (part of Phase 2) of this study have been presented in the previous paper publication (Bunawan at el. 2015; Bunawan & Nordin 2015).
