What are the benefits of documentation in an organization? 

→ Documentation is essential for process control 

Whatever your working industry is, creating, keeping and successfully running processes is key. Many organizations battle with lost documentation, making it look bad for teams. 

Put energy and effort in creating optimal processes for your organization, but don’t let all your work go to failure – make sure whatever it’s implemented is kept and respected. 

→ Documentation avoids duplicate work 

By documenting your projects and/or tasks it allows you to keep everything clear and transparent. Don’t duplicate work and duplicate efforts. Keep it short and simple. 

→ Centralize your documentation

By opting for a documentation platform, everything becomes clear and centralized. Easy for team members to find what they’re looking for, and available for whoever is joining your team. 

→ Easy to onboard and outboard a team member 

When processes are made clear, it becomes an easy task to give the new hire an autonomous role by discovering their roles and organization when everything is documented.  And when down-boarding someone, also, they are able to leave and create their processes, easy for the new hire to adopt and follow.
