Document control

What is meant by Document control?

"Document control" refers to the process of managing, controlling, and monitoring documents within a company or organization. This process involves the creation, approval, distribution, revision, and archiving of documents to ensure that all relevant parties always have access to the latest and valid versions. The aim of document control is to ensure the quality, consistency, completeness, and compliance of documents, as well as to improve the efficiency of document processes.
