What is Document Management (DMS)?
Document management, often referred to as Document Management Systems (DMS), is the use of a computer system and software to store, manage and track electronic documents and electronic images of paper-based information captured through the use of a document scanner.
Document management is how your organization stores, manages, and tracks its electronic documents.
Now, one may define document management as the software that controls and organizes documents throughout an organization.
It incorporates document and content capture, workflow, document repositories, COLD/ERM, and output systems, and information retrieval systems.
Additionally, the processes used to track, store, and control documents.
Documents, whether electronic or paper, are an essential component of every single existing enterprise.
Managing business information, sometimes from several sources, can be a challenging task.
Based on the operations of your company, a document management system (DMS) that captures, stores, and retrieves both paper and electronic documents can offer multiple major improvements to your organization.

Reduced Storage Space
Enhanced Security
Improved Regulatory Compliance
Easier Retrieval
Better Collaboration

Benefits of Document Management Solutions
1. Reduced Storage Space
Commercial property costs are rising exponentially, skyrocketing and so is the expense to store paper documents.
A software-based document management solution (DMS) that can reduce the need for file cabinets, boxes and storage bins is an asset to any business, clearing up clutter and making space for occupancy.
Documents that must be stored as hard copies can often be stored in more affordable locations, such as an offsite warehouse or vault.
2. Enhanced Security
Document security is essential for organizations of any size to keep confidential data under lock and key.
DMS provides better control over confidential documents and access to documents can be guarded at the folder level for different groups or individuals.
Also, a DMS leaves a trackable trail of who has viewed a document, when it was accessed, and how it may have been modified.
Managed documents are highly traceable and can be tagged to allow for automated alerts.
3. Improved Regulatory Compliance
Compliance requirements for specific documents can be quite intricate.
Breaking, trespassing laws can lead to fines, revoked licenses, and in some cases criminal liability.
Federal and state regulatory regulations such as Sarbanes Oxley and HIPAA mandate strict security and privacy guidelines.
DMS reduces the risk of non-compliance.
Records retention schedules, for example, can be automated, and new documents can be more easily classified and stored.
4. Easier Retrieval
Searching for and retrieving documents can be highly time consuming – and we all know time is a valuable resource.
In fact, these statistics demonstrate the costs related to the usual time spent managing paper documents: Why document management systems?
Because it costs $20 to file a document, $120 to find a misfiled document, and $220 to reproduce a lost document
Organizations spend $20 in labor to file a document, $120 in labor to find a misfiled document, and $220 in labor to reproduce a lost document.
7.5% of all documents get lost; 3% of the remainder get misfiled.
Professionals spend 5 to 15% of their time reading information, and up to 50% of their time looking for it.
A document management system can be a powerful, time-saving tool.
Depending on the solution implemented, a DMS can retrieve files by a word or phrase in a document – full text search, or DMS can apply index categories to a document or folder.
Easier integration with business applications facilitates access to critical information.
DMS also gives the opportunity to access documents remotely. If there is internet connection, documents can be accessed from anywhere.
5. Better Collaboration
With DMS, information sharing, and collaboration can be a lot easier.
Documents captured from different sources can be accessed from all locales. Electronic imaging makes sharing documents over a network via email or the Internet possible.
DMS provides greater visibility to business processes and can allow for better workflow monitoring.
Authorized access by external users can be allowed and monitored. DMS also offers Version Control which allows for older versions of the same document to be recovered if needed.
This feature is important if several parties work on the same document and there are changes made to a document that were not authorized or licensed to occur.
6. Better Backup and Disaster Recovery
All document management solutions should include a data backup and emergency recovery plan.
With digital archiving as a backup, paper documents are protected from fire and flood and other disasters.
With a DMS, documents are highly traceable and can be tracked within a range of criteria.
Also, because imaged documents are centrally stored, they cannot be lost or misplaced after viewing.
Documents are less likely to be misfiled, and if so, they are easier to locate with cross-indexing.
Documents can be digitized and archived at their point of entry into the system.
7. Less Calculable Benefits
Several less apparent benefits of a document management system include:
Flexibility
Competitiveness
Improved client relations
Peace of mind
Time is valuable, and time saved is a definite benefit of DMS that often translates directly into increased productivity.
Faster and more efficient document retrieval can improve staff morale and raise client satisfaction.
Also, document management solutions are scalable to meet the changing needs of any enterprise.
Proper document management systems can reap lavish profits for you and your outfit.
