The reading and approval of key documents is a fundamental requirement in most laboratories. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Process Operating Instructions (POIs), Study plans and regulatory guidelines all need to be read by key personnel and this reading recorded. DocMan was developed meet these needs.

DocMan allows the user to see all the documents they are required to read and sign off once read and understood. The user can also create new documents and submit these to a review process (technical, QA and management). Once issued the documents then can/must be read by other users in the system. Reporting tools detail who has to read issued docs or who still has to read them. Workflow emailing can be configured so that automatic emails are sent to a user when a document requires review/approval.

Although developed for use in a laboratory DocMan can be used for any work environment when the management, approval, and reading of important documents is required.
