Introduction To Document Management

MIE Solutions is introducing this new blog to discuss document management for engineers.   Engineers require special document handling capabilities because of the large files that are processed through cad systems.

Document management controls the documents in your organization — how they are created, reviewed, published, and consumed, and how they are ultimately disposed of or retained. Although the term “management” implies top-down control of information, an effective document management system should reflect the culture of the organization using it. The tools you use for document management should be flexible, allowing you to tightly control documents’ life cycles if that fits your enterprise’s culture and goals, but also letting you implement a more loosely structured system if that better suits your enterprise.

A well-designed document management system promotes finding and sharing information easily. It organizes content in a logical way, and makes it easy to standardize content creation and presentation across an enterprise. It promotes knowledge management and information mining. It helps your organization meet its legal responsibilities. It provides features at each stage of a document’s life cycle, from template creation to document authoring, reviewing, publishing, auditing, and ultimately destroying or archiving.

  1. Nice Introduction, hopefully you will continue with this knowledge transfer.

  2. I look forward to seeing this product be developed and watching it’s take up in the A/E/C community. It looks very promising especially with further polishing. You are developing a system in the same family as the excellent Document Module within the Aconex service. Only MieDocs will run on the LAN whereas Aconex is purely web based. We’ve been waiting for a LAN based system for years.

    Oh, and before I forget, would be good if MieDocs exported reports to excel format.

    This product has tons of potential.
