If your team is struggling to keep up with product development and regulatory expectations, it is time to rethink your approach.

Digitalization is the only scalable way to meet today's regulatory requirements and get medicines to patients faster.

Most teams have squeezed as much optimization as possible out of their current processes. You need a new way of working, enabled by structured content, standards governance, and AI readiness best practices.

Digitalization unlocks business value.

It’s not too late to start your content optimization and transformation initiative.

Frequently asked questions

Most likely, the challenges were due to people not being fully prepared for the new approach and the organization lacking experience guidance to see them through.. In some cases, the selected technology was not mature enough or was not designed to support your organization’s unique needs.

It's time to try again. Industry standards are stable. Technology is mature. Regulators increasingly expect sponsors to provide the quality, speed, and consistency that only a structured content ecosystem can provide. And this time, you’ll have Content Rules to guide you.

Plan for 3 to 6 months to develop your new workflow, establish governance, determine your content reuse strategy, and configure an initial set of content libraries and rules in your new system. Content Rules can guide your team through this process in parallel with software implementation.

Note that the first use case takes the longest because it’s where we make 70-75% percent of the decisions about structure, metadata, and workflow. Subsequent use cases leverage these decisions and go faster as you only need to consider the 25-30% of unique factors.

The end-to-end transformation timeline varies widely. Organizational factors such as software procurement, GxP validation, use case complexity, data quality, SOPs, and staff capacity all impact the project plan.

Content Rules promises to guide you through the most effective path to success.

Organizations that adopt structured content can improve user experience, reduce content creation time, and reduce compliance risk.

Structured content uses metadata, tagging, and reusable components to streamline version tracking, translations, and audit trails. Content reuse eliminates the problem of delivering inconsistent data or sending mixed message with redundant narrative content. Content reuse also reduces translation cost and turnaround time, as each component only needs to be translated once into each language.

 Structured content systems automatically maintain relationships across the content. You always know where information originates and where it is reused. Change history is tracked at a granular level, component by component. Integrations and APIs allow structured content systems to pull data from source systems into the content, without any need to copy/paste or re-verify.

These capabilities make information easier to find and faster to update. It’s also easier to trace what changes were made, when changes occurred, and even why the changes were made.

Absolutely! Our globalization experts will optimize your content for global audiences. Experience shows that adopting structured content authoring significantly reduces translation time and costs.

Our expert team will guide you every step of the way, from diagnosing problems to defining solutions, selecting and implementing technology, and providing ongoing support and continuous improvement. We collaborate with your team to create solutions that work for you!

Transform your content & unlock opportunities

Pharma organizations that adopt structured content authoring gain a competitive edge by reducing risks, costs, and inefficiency.

Content Rules is here to guide you every step of the way.
