Take a look at your email inbox. Chances are someone has sent you a working document as an attachment because they are finished with it and now it's your turn. It's also a good bet bet that the folder containing your current project has file names like Operation-v1.doc and Operation-v2.doc. Every document goes through some kind of workflow and version control. Many companies do this using email attachments and file naming conventions. A true document management environment will include workflow and version control, but these systems are usually too costly for the small documentation shop.
In this audio conference, Brian Travis discusses the shortcomings of current document management practices, and ways to streamline and improve the process.
