If you really want a Document Management System, especially one that can handle scans of documents, than you should take a look at Paperless.
It can help with scanns in ways that Calibre can not.

Calibre is totally brilliant as a library and tool chest for eBooks, but a real document management system is rather different, though like Calibre it has a GUI, a files system you shouldn't access directly (with computer generated and scanned paper documents) and a database. It also likely adds barcodes or QR codes to stuff emailed or printed so if it comes back with writing on it the scanning automatically tracks it.
It will be multi-user with variable privileges (Calibre is single user), it will track changes and have the different versions (electronic or scanned) available with who changed what.
It might have approvals too.
