Regulatory Submissions, Information, and Document Management Forum

Data is key to RIM systems. Data is why people use RIM systems. Therefore when implementing a new RIM system, it is critical to start with the data and process in mind. Unless you thoroughly understand the data and why users need it, you will not know what you need to design, and critical aspects such as user acceptance/adoption and data quality will not be successful. Understanding people and business process is the first step to understanding how and what data needs to be maintained. Understanding multiple global legacy business processes and transforming these into simplified and harmonized processes with appropriate use of technology, and a clear governance process is critical to a successful implementation. Understanding when other parts of the organization will need to use regulatory information to enable their processes, will impact both data and processes, and this is when the use of master data management becomes critical. This session will bring together 3 speakers who will share their experiences, successes and failures in implementing systems to fully support the future state of regulatory data, to enable data integrity and achieve business excellence.
