Abstract

101 words

Records management is important for organizational growth and survival. It enhances decision making, accountability and staff performance. Although organizations keep records, not all these records are well documented and stored to facilitate the above usage. The objective of this research is to establish the relationship between good records management and organization performance, identify factors enhancing the relationship and recommend changes for improvement. Case studies are being conducted at two universities, namely Egerton University in Kenya and Makerere University in Uganda. The information is being generated through focus interviews with members in the different units and analysis of management records including finance.
