Best practices for document management in 2024

Frequently asked questions

What’s the best way to store documents?
The best way to store documents is by using a Document Management System (DMS). It keeps everything organized, secure, and easy to find. Plus, setting up a clear folder structure and using consistent naming conventions can save you loads of time.
How can I keep control of my documents?
You can keep control by setting up a solid document control policy, maintaining version control, and limiting access to sensitive information. A DMS can help automate these processes, making sure you’re always in control.
What metrics should I use to measure document management?
Some useful metrics include how quickly you can retrieve documents, how accurate your documents are, and how satisfied your team is with the system. These metrics will help you see if your document management practices are working as they should.
What exactly is a document management procedure?
A document management procedure is like a playbook for handling your documents. It covers everything from how documents are created and stored to how they’re managed and eventually disposed of. Following document lifecycle management best practices will make sure you’ve got everything covered.
