EIM and Life Sciences and Health

Life Sciences and Health companies form part of a very wide ecosystem.

The data that has to be dealt with comes from various sources, which explains the need for solid and standard mechanisms to capture, reference and share this data. Repositories are the core elements of all information systems. In the health sector, a unique patient repository is synonymous to the Grail: the one goal towards which all health institutions are gradually working. Cross-functionality of health professionals’ repositories is also an issue of interest.

Despite the omnipresence of strict processes and dedicated information systems to execute them, unstructured documents are still very widely used to circulate information. Enterprise Content Management (ECM) helps:

• Obtain documents at a very early stage
• Associate them with the relevant formal management processes
• Ensure that they are secured and archived
• Organise various stakeholders’ collaboration on these files

The variety of internal and external company stakeholders and the sensitive nature of the information to be handled, requires extreme rigor with regards to identity management and information security.  The ability to efficiently circulate highly sensitive information among all the respective stakeholders is especially important in the health sector.
