Episode 8: CEO Philippe Gaudreau on Document Control Processes in Solabs QM 10

In today's episode, Ericka and her co-host-turned-guest, Philippe Gaudreau, will be discussing different scenarios when using the document control process in Solabs QM 10. Philippe is a Chemical Engineer by trade who founded Solabs almost 20 years ago. Supported by a team of strong developers and IT professionals, Philippe has managed two major iterations of his fully integrated EQMS Solabs QM. Today, the solution is offered via the web and can be hosted in the Cloud or installed on premises. The fully validated and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance solution helps Life Sciences companies automate their quality management system.

Ericka and Philippe talk about the document control process and provide listeners with a more indepth look at different scenarios within it. The process is quite unique to Solabs QM and is an extremely useful feature to learn about! Philippe explains what the document control process is, how the creation of a new document works in Solabs QM, the flow of steps within it, how to set up documents for a periodic review, and what's on the roadmap for upcoming versions of the doc control process
