Findings: We found that managers and users utilize various strategies to cope with changes and play different roles, based on the situation at hand. Constructed through their negotiations and influenced by social, economic, and cultural factors, electronic communication networks reflect organizational and individual resilience. Based on the findings, we encourage social inclusions in the implementation of integrated records, to achieve the sustainable development program goals.
