It was the same in the companies for which I worked as contracted engineer. But as engineers we are innovators, not historians, and the hourly rate and the project timing is such that it leaves no time for archiving duties. The only option would have been to take the stuff home and keep it there but that is usually forbidden by the terms of the contract.
