Frequently Asked Questions
A Life Science Document Management System (DMS) is a specialized software solution designed to manage, organize, and store documents and information in the field of Life Sciences, which includes industries like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, and others.
A DMS helps Life Science companies streamline their document-related processes, reduce the risk of errors, and improve overall efficiency in document management.
Document Management and Document Control are integral components of a comprehensive Quality Management System, but they serve different operational and compliance needs within a company.
Document Management resembles an organized filing system for all your non-regulated business documents. It is a centralized repository to store, organize, and retrieve everything from marketing materials to sales reports and financial documents.
On the other hand, Document Control operates as a secure vault designed for regulated documents that must comply with specific industry requirements. Document Control encompasses more complex features such as document approval and change control workflows. For example, in developing a clinical trial protocol, the document might need to be reviewed and approved by multiple experts. Changes to the document are tracked and controlled to ensure that only authorized personnel can make them.
To sum it all up, Document Management is the general document organization and storage, while Document Control is about document rigorous supervision, secure access, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
Both are essential and supported by our platform. You can manage all your documents effectively, whether subject to strict regulations or not.
Access is role-based and can be controlled by system administrators. As a system administrator, you have the flexibility to set permissions according to site, department, document type, and even specific project teams.
