Too Many (?)

For knowledge workers in the built environment, documentation is impossible to get away from. In whatever form, be it online or on paper, the need for documentation never goes away.  When things go wrong, documentation is one of the first things gathered together.

There’s another view that says there are too many documents.

Too much paperwork, too many checklists and signoffs and, dare we say, too many approval responsibilities out there.

In the built environment, the requirements to comply with so many codes and standards and specifications and contracts, … there’s no doubt about it - it can be overwhelming.
