Step by step through DigiLab
We have already accomplished the first steps on the way to digitized regulatory affairs workflows for you: We defined basic requirements for RA software, prepared a market analysis of available solutions, and procured demo versions of qualified RA software. The result: a pool of appropriate software from which you can select the most suitable tools.
For this purpose, we have defined a process that takes you to your ultimate goal in three steps: from identifying your individual requirements, through the testing and selection process, to implementation. As a neutral partner, we mediate between you and the respective software providers, bridge the knowledge gaps and support both sides in the successful implementation of digitized workflows for RA processes.
What is missing now is the specific adaptation to the needs of your company.

Test in the DigiLab and selection
For this purpose, all stakeholders come together in the lab - RA department, IT department, employees of different country groups – and by assigning a computer workstation. Based on our analysis of your specific company processes and using your data, you test the configurations of the software for your respective roles.The conditions correspond as realistic as possible to the actual processes in your company - with the difference that all participants can exchange information directly and immediately and adjust the processes in real-time. In this way, we create an optimal basis for decision-making, on which you can select your potential upcoming software with confidence.
