Document Management System for Every Business

Businesses look continually for that competitive edge. And with today’s digital economy, where so many products and services are being commoditised and processes automated, any initiative to deliver improvements in any core business processes must be viewed as offering a slight business advantage. Managing documents and information has long been seen by enterprise businesses as a way to improve processes and add to that competitive edge. And today, small and medium size business owners now view information and document management as more than just an administrative task. With each passing day and the plethora of documents and information a business creates, the profile of this critical management duty is raised and its importance highlighted. With so many regulations to comply with and data to protect, the importance of secure document and information management is a topic to which more and more small and medium sized organisations must devote more time. It is also as important to consider how this once pure administrative task can provide some business advantages. A document management system is a software solution that provides businesses with a system to manage and control every aspect of electronic files and documents; from scanning paper documents and combining these with existing soft documents, to storing them in a secure central repository, that is accessible to users at any time, from anywhere. A DMS will include many features and tools that allow users to search, review and process their documents. The business benefits are many, here are just a few:     Reduce Acquisition Time and Storage Needs. A DMS will have options to allow users to manually and or automatically acquire electronic documents and index them. Some will also offer A.I. features to train the system to store document information systematically. With customisable indexing and integration with other document creation tools, a DMS can quickly become the foundation of a businesses’ information management strategy. Allowing user to reduce the time to index and help reduce storage requirements. Improved Safety, Security and Access Control Safeguarding your data, and ensuring regulations that effect both business and personal data should be addressed by a DMS. It is important that a system provides the means to not only secure the digital files it stores, but also the data related to these files. A Secure Document Management system will also provide tools to secure access to the system, offering preferences that define policies about who and how a user can access the system, the documents and information it stores and how this can be shared with others. An important feature that systems should also offer is document and activity audit trails. These are particularly important where evidence may be required for compliance with regulatory standards. Document Control and Workflow The control of working documents and how these are shared with colleagues will also be addressed by a DMS. Features for versioning, locking files and archiving will need to be included. Combine these document control features with workflow features that allow documents to be sent to colleagues and co-workers, for action or for their information, and for these processes to be tracked and updated, will help deliver improvements of efficiency in these workflow and document control processes.

What to Look for in a Document Management System?

Having an organised working environment is vital for the success of a business practice given the current challenges such as customers and clients expecting faster response times and increasingly burdensome regulatory requirements. Regardless of the size of the business organisation, handling documents manually is time-consuming. and often results in data loss and extended response times.

Although initially, it appears that the flow of documents can be managed, it’s not really possible with the constantly increasing volume of correspondence – and it is not just paper; there are electronic communications too. This is why businesses turn to digital document management systems to help automate the process of document management. Document management software enables the organisation to convert paper files to digital storage, and enhance the ability to share all type of documents and information.

With the constantly changing requirements of a business, the nature and functionality of the document management application have evolved. Early document management systems used to support only a limited number of file formats, but now the software has developed enough to be able to support a plethora of digital formats.

Choosing a document management software application depends on several factors as it needs to fit in and be adaptable to the company structure and work culture.

Here are some of the most important factors to help you make the right decision:

Scanning – Scanning is an essential element in the business and most document management system provide the feature to scan documents. However, some systems take this further by providing the ability to recognize bar codes on the documents, to make it easier to both track and store the document information.

Accessibility – The documents, once stored in the system, can be accessed through not only the machine that was used to store it but also shared across multiple users and multiple devices – especially if the document management system is cloud-based.

Storage – Document management systems store documents conveniently on a server that can be in-house, or, if its a cloud-based system, the data is stored on a cloud server. Compared to manual storage, the servers can store huge numbers of documents, and this has the ability to free up significant amounts of office space which otherwise would have been required for storage. Efficient document management systems not only store documents but through micromanagement, can reduce the required space on the server by keeping track of user activities and archiving data that is not likely to be required in the immediate future.

Filing structure – Document management systems should be flexible in terms of the filing structure to suit the needs of your business. If the structure is too rigid then it may not fit into your working practices and methodologies.
