Fred is right, it depends on the risk for each group of documents scanned.
NSW State Records guidelines repeat this message, and suggest that for very
large batches, 5 - 10% is ok.

My experience is that if you are sensible and get your scanning done by a
commercial bureau, QA is self limiting, as the costs are directly related
to staff time, so the more QA the higher the unit cost. If you do it in
house it's only funny money, and besides, they are only records staff so it
doesn't really matter . . . (joke).

These views are mine alone. They may or may not be those of any
previous or present employers or clients. I don't know. If I'd asked and
they'd agreed, I would have signed it "Harry Peck and Co and Glenn".
Or whatever. But I haven't, so I didn't.
