Abstract:The double-track system of synchronizing electronic and paper documents with business processes has brought enormous pressure to paper documents management in various industries. Under the background of global digital transformation of documents management and China's "Internet plus" action plan, electronic documents single-track management of National Key R&D Program of China has become an inevitable trend and task. However, the existing research on National Key R&D Program of China has not yet involved archive management and electronic documents management. To this end, this paper reviews and analyzes the history and experience of electronic documents management for national science and technology programs over the past 30 years. It argues that the National Science and Technology Management Information System, Public Service Platform has achieved full process electronic management of all business activities for National Key R&D Program of China, which laying the foundation for the transition from a double-track system to a single-track system in electronic documents management for National Key R&D Program of China. However, there are still problems with the insufficient top-level design of archive management, incomplete construction of archive management system, and lagging construction of electronic signatures, electronic seals, and electronic documents metadata schemes in the electronic documents management of National Key R&D Program of China. In response to these problems, it puts forward some countermeasures from the aspects of improving the archive management organization and institutional system, developing electronic signatures and seals application systems, formulating electronic documents metadata scheme, and improving the technical system of National Science and Technology Information System Public Service Platform, in order to fully realize the operation and management of electronic documents single-track system management of National Key R&D Program of China.
