Document Control requires competencies…. And a lot of patience!


I bet you have had this feeling before: just feeling either angry or depressed when you receive documents to manage and when they always come with the same problems or errors.

We thought that handling this situation with humour could help a lot of Document Controllers facing these problems and we launched the “Keep Calm and Reject the Transmittal” campaign. We have created a fun poster that you can keep on your desk and share with your friends.

Don’t hesitate to download it, print it, share it and have a look to it each time you feel the need :-)

Tablets and Businesses

Tablets are now widely used for personal purposes, an increasing number of companies have been adopting them for business purposes. And one must admit that, especially for business travellers, the use of tablets in a professional environment completely makes sense.

Not only they allow to communicate easily (emails, Skype, etc), but they also allow to always have access to business contacts, calendars and, more importantly, to the company’s documents (with applications such as DropBox, Goodreader, QuickOffice, etc.).

You can also easily edit documents, save them, review them and synchronise them.

Tablets also allow remote conferencing and presentation sharing (Webex, GoToMeeting). Note that you will need to have a good bandwidth to run a smooth video conference.

And that’s not it: Obviously, with the huge catalogue of available applications (many of them are business oriented), possibilities are exponential, and there is no doubt that, in the near future, the use of these tablets will spread even more within companies, with integration with EDMS (Electronic Document Management Systems).
