Document management and control is central to an effective quality management and regulatory compliance system. Organizations following manual and paper-based processes for managing policies and control documents are realizing that such approach is inefficient, costly, and unsustainable. Be it quality records, process narratives, SOPs, compliance records or regulatory filings, inability to manage the increasing number of documents can be a bottleneck in a growing enterprise.

HDL’s Document Management practice  enables companies to adopt an electronic and automated approach to document management across the enterprise. The selected electronic document management software system provides a central repository to store and organize documents. Integrated collaboration and workflow tools can be used to access, create, modify, review, and approve documents globally in a controlled manner. The powerful analytics and reporting capability with graphical dashboards to track each document from origin to obsolescence gives managers complete visibility into the system.

• Maintain a central, secure repository for efficient storage and access to control documents, policies and procedures
• Accelerate review and approval cycles with documents automatically moving from one stage to the next
• Improve communication and teamwork across departments and functional areas
• Gain enterprise-wide visibility into document status with measurable performance metrics
• Lower cost of regulatory compliance (such as FDA 21 CFR Part 11) with electronic documents and signatures, revision control, and audit trails
• Enforces document and data security as dictated by permissions
• Reduces time, effort and costs associated with manual, paper-based processes
