Document management, at its core, is the systematic approach to handling an organization's documents throughout their lifecycle—from creation or capture to storage, retrieval, distribution, and eventual archiving or destruction. This encompasses everything from physical paper files to a wide array of electronic documents, including PDFs, word processing files, spreadsheets, and digital images. The primary aim is to ensure that information is organized, accessible, secure, and compliant with relevant regulations. In essence, document management provides the framework for treating documents as valuable business assets while minimizing associated risks.
