The Importance of Document Retention for Engineers

Posted by Blue Technologies Ohio on Nov 18, 2022 9:30:00 AM

Like other industries, the practice of engineering has increased in complexity over the years, in part due to wide-ranging compliance issues arising from entanglement among the areas of liability, technology, and regulation. Advances in technology have made it possible for once local engineering firms to broaden their service areas to include surrounding states or even nationwide coverage. Of course, with this expanded reach comes an increase in regulatory requirements, making document retention an essential part of proper compliance — and protection in the event of legal difficulties.
