Document Management System

Why do we need a document control system?

If your business is still relying on a legacy document system, you may be facing unseen risks. This article will highlight just how crucial systematic document management is to an organization's success and credibility.
In every business, large or small, "documents" are the heart of every process, from financial documents, standard certificates, to internal work manuals. But as these documents grow in number, management becomes more complex and leads to numerous problems. Having a "document control system" is not just about convenience; it also addresses security, reliability, and overall operational efficiency.

5 major problems that arise when there is no good document control system
  • 1. Difficult and time-consuming to find documents: Using traditional file cabinets or folders on computers makes employees waste a lot of time searching for important documents.
  • 2. Risk of using outdated documents: Without version control, employees may use outdated documents, leading to errors in the workflow.
  • 3. Lack of Audit Readiness: Auditing standards from external agencies (Audit) will become difficult and time-consuming because complete evidence and information cannot be presented in a timely manner.
  • 4. Slow approval process: Physical document submission delays approvals and interferes with other processes.
  • 5. Risk of loss or damage: Paper documents can be destroyed in unexpected disasters or accidents, and digital files can be corrupted by viruses.
  • How can a digital document control system help solve these problems?
  • Find documents in seconds: With a powerful search system, you can instantly find the documents you need, whether by document name, date, or department, saving you a lot of time.
  • Ensure you always use the latest documents: Document version control is automatically applied and only the most recent files are displayed. Eliminate the hassle of using old documents that can lead to production errors.
  • Be audit ready at any time: An Audit Trail records every document access and revision history, giving you complete information to present to auditors and smoothly pass through audits.
  • Fast Approval Process: Create a digital approval workflow that automatically notifies stakeholders, enabling fast document approvals and real-time status tracking.
  • Safe from damage: All data is stored on a secure cloud with automatic backup. No need to worry about loss or damage from unexpected accidents.
