Document management is configured by a set of rules, principles and concepts that govern the documents from their production and is basically oriented to allow the integration of the document management of an entity with its planning. In some public institutions there is no good document management as a result of the disorganization of files due to bad practices, which has been sustained by the mismanagement of documents, that is, unreliable information for citizens. From the archival field, it is necessary to implement processes in document management with the support of the administration, for the creation of documents, proposing measures and controls for their effective development, to avoid establishing holes through which acts of corruption. We know that this topic generates great concern and needs to be deepened. However, we consider that, in the approaches expressed and put to discussion by the interested parties to analyze, enrich or overcome them, there are keys to document management whose implementation offers a guarantee to reduce, from document management, the scope of the corruption actions. From the archival approach, a solution to administrative management is presented for public and private entities to keep an eye on the activities that compromise the issue of document management, which ensures that the planning of the processes of this support a transparent, efficient and effective administration. The contribution of this study is the presentation of the document management processes forming an archive committee, in public and private entities because if we do not have that advisory support, then there is no good document management. The methodology of this theme addresses the relationship between archival disorganization and administrative corruption. In conclusion, it is possible to affirm that the documents organized in their respective archives are the safeguard of administrative transparency, the opposite of corruption.
