Have You Suffered a Document Disaster Yet?

Judging by the continual catalogue of hefty fines being imposed for breaches in compliancy, it can’t be long before the ‘prevention before cure’ principle will be adopted by many more organisations.

Back in the 80s, the notion of the paperless office was often predicted – we’re still not there, but compliancy and environmental sustainability will no doubt be a factor in reducing the number of non-electronic documents produced and distributed in the future.

So what is Document Management and how does it prevent Document Disasters?

Document Management is a term used to describe solutions that empower organisations to reduce the volume of printed documents in a number of ways. Users can scan or batch scan printed hardcopy documents and have them automatically transformed into a format that can be stored in the Document Management Database.

Document Management solutions bring with them an array of value; Documents stored can be indexed and retrieved simply by users in a secure manner, this can help with some specific compliance criteria and storage costs for paper-based documents are drastically reduced. Where compliance requires retention and or destruction of documents within specific timescales, Document Management solutions provide a tool to help schedule such activities. And, where environmental sustainability such as ISO14011 accreditation is concerned, reducing printed documents and reducing C02 emissions go hand in hand.
