When we talk about document management processes, we’re not just talking about data storage. We’re also talking about business processes such as: 

• Scanning paper documents into digital format 
• Administrative document management and electronic signature 
• Search, locate, retrieve and file-share documents 
• Document version management and updating   
• Bank archive management 
• Consistent records management (different departments or employees mean a different document archiving system) 
• Customer file management 
• Technical specifications management 
• Electronic data management and security 
• Incoming and outgoing mail processing 

And much more besides. Enterprise content management can easily become very complex. That’s why modern companies must implement ECM software tailored to their organizational needs.  

In the 1990s, the concept of quality assurance took off. Companies had to be able to provide evidence and documentation of their quality and risk management efforts. This is when enterprise content management (ECM) systems became increasingly important. 

Since then, numerous regulations on information security and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) have come into effect. Therefore, modern organizations must use electronic document management software (EDMS) to record the indicators, data and results that prove their accountability regarding safety and environmental issues. Good archival document management is thus essential. 

Several studies have also shown that unstructured information management harms employee productivity. A lack of organization regularly leads to extended document search times, lower customer satisfaction and, in severe cases, data loss and security breaches.
