Kivo FAQs
Document management is the systematic control of documents and records throughout their lifecycle, from creation and storage to sharing and eventual archiving or disposal. It involves processes and tools designed to organize, secure, and manage documents efficiently. For the life sciences industry, this also includes adhering to regulations from regulatory agencies around the world, such as Part-11 Compliance in the US and Annex-11 in the EU. A document management system (or DMS) specifically designed for the pharmaceutical and medical device industry can significantly improve your ability to meet these compliance requirements.
