DOCUMENTATION MANAGEMENT

DOCUMENTATION MANAGEMENT. Documentation management
includes the capture, storage, organization, and coordination
of access to large amounts of text and image
information. This information may be stored at one or more
locations and the information may be accessed or transferred
to display devices (terminals), printers, or other repositories
(for long-term storage).
Documentation management allows manuals, procedures,
specifications, and other vital information to be instantly
accessible by authorized employees. Documentation management
can save a company a considerable amount in printing
reproduction costs, because all documentation is digital rather
than paper.
