Mistakes are part and parcel of the human experience. That’s why everyone accepts that “to err is human”. But accepting a mistake and living with it are two different things. As a business owner, you know that your workers will always make mistakes, simply because they are human and not machines. However, you also know that the consequences of these mistakes can be potentially catastrophic for your firm and its stakeholders, including customers.
Documentation mistakes are particularly common in the modern business landscape. A few small and occasional mistakes can be ignored. But what if one of your staff members makes a serious mistake in a contract? A will? An agreement? A subpoena? Errors in legal documents or documents with some kind of legal standing can be a serious problem for your company.
You can train your people not to make such mistakes. But there’s still no guarantee that they will never make them because as we said earlier, they are human. So how can you fix documentation errors and minimise the chances that an error will go through and bite you later?
Simple answer: technology!
