CASE STUDY:
Life Sciences Product Integration with Documentum
Medical Device Manufacturer improves efficiency, compliance and time to market with OpenText Documentum
Business Challenge
- Existing data was in multiple platforms including file systems, SharePoint and paper documents
- New products and materials were purchased globally without a centralized content storage system or standardized workflow processes for managing the data
- No process standardization existed to manage client product documentation across the globe, with language and time zone barriers
- There were delays in expanding business lines because of poor document management and process standardization
Solution
- Created a configurable/reusable migration process allowing the client to move content from current systems or locations to the OpenText Documentum Life Sciences system
- Created a migration workflow including processes for required identification, classification and labeling of data
- Included required approvals in the standard workflow process
- Migrated all product data to a secured, centralized life sciences platform improving business processes and meeting regulatory requirements
Benefits & ROI
- Improved compliance through the data being managed in a centralized repository with metadata providing a clear audit trail
- Reduced risk of product launch delays and compliance fines
- Improved user efficiency through a simplified product documentation search in a single platform
- Reduced time to expand product lines through quicker management of purchased materials and products documentation
