Electronic record-keeping is a prime example of how adapting new technology can make systems more dependable. For starters, electronic documentation expedites processes through the retrieval of prompt data. Compared to paper-based systems, electronic documentation facilitates indexing and reference. Through a reliable built-in search structure, required documents can be furnished upon request in a significantly shorter time.

Backing up documents also becomes more reliable with electronic records management. Since documents are in digital form, the files’ lifetime is extended exponentially. Wear and tear, an obvious problem with paper records, becomes a thing of the past.

Furthermore, security options have been expanded by digitizing documents. With a competitive security program or software, managers can easily control file access among the employees. They can dictate which employees can see, edit, and even delete certain documents. And in the case of a security breach, reliable security programs also enable managers to quickly detect cases of file tampering.
