SOP
Management

Being in Products Manufacturing , R&D center, commercial business with multi-national pharmaceutical companies, the life sciences organizations has to deal with a lot of critical Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and SOPs is a requirements of GMP. Life sciences industries require a scalable and agile solution to streamline SOP lifecycle management adhering to strict compliance and regulatory frameworks.
