Pharma time-to-market reduced thanks to more efficient submission document publishing services

PharmaLex, a leading provider of specialized services for the pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device industries, chose DocShifter to simplify and accelerate the generation of compliant, submission-ready PDF documents for their 1000’s of clients worldwide. PharmaLex’s services include document pre-publishing and regulatory submission publishing, therefore managing large numbers of documents in different formats and differing levels of quality. 

DocShifter is a proven document conversion and validation solution for pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device companies. The software automates, accelerates and simplifies the way companies create submission-ready PDFs from original source documents; no matter which system these documents reside in. DocShifter can automatically validate the PDF output against health authority requirements, fix errors and return a report to ensure compliance.  

“Our clients need their eCTD sequences to be published quickly, accurately and efficiently. Our aim is to go above and beyond in delivering compliance solutions, by combining existing state-of-the-art software and our established know-how, and DocShifter fits perfectly into our strategy. DocShifter saves us a lot of time (on average, we estimate 5 minutes per document, multiplied by thousands of documents), reduces the risk of non-compliance, increases the quality of PDF renditions; allowing us to realize real, immediate and lasting benefits for our clients.” said Jennie May, Director of Regulatory Informatics & Operations at PharmaLex, with 20 years of experience in the industry.  

More and more life sciences companies are adopting DocShifter’s document conversion and validation solutions to automate and speed up the way they approach submission content preparation. DocShifter’s flexibility to connect with multiple systems, check and fix Word and PDF documents and simultaneously generate submission-ready PDF documents for multiple health authorities increases operational efficiency in regulatory and beyond, with one centralized platform. 

“Working with PharmaLex has been a great experience. I’ve known them for a while, and they have always been known for delivering exceptional services. We are very happy we can contribute to PharmaLex living up to the promises they make to their customers.” says Paul Ireland, VP Life Sciences at DocShifter.  

DocShifter’s focus remains on helping life sciences companies accelerate compliant document conversion, and PharmaLex, a technology enabled solution provider, has benefited greatly from this focus in a short period of time. 

“DocShifter is a friendly and flexible company, they are passionate about their product and provide a service that really shows they care about our success. We have had some specific requirements for creating Submission Ready PDF renditions from PDF source documents. Docshifter listened to all our comments and suggestions and have incorporated the majority of them into the recent releases. The speed of making these changes has been very impressive.” said Jennie May.

“Our future plans are simple. We will remain focused on what we do best: making file format conversion easy. While doing so, we will stay close to our customers, and make sure we always continue to exceed their expectations” said Geert van Peteghem, CEO at DocShifter. “This will bring us even closer to our customers, and become one of the major players when people think of compliant PDF conversion in Life Sciences.”

Compliant, fast, automated and scalable
file format conversion for the regulated enterprise.

See what our beloved customers have to say about us:

"DocShifter is converting 36.000 documents per day, coming from all over our company (and external). We have no control over what is coming in. And still the failure rate is below 1%.

And what really sets it apart from what we were doing before, DocShifter tells us what went wrong, so we can act upon the documents that did not convert".
Operations Manager Large European Bank
"DocShifter will save us over 750 hours of manual work per year. And we expect the time savings to increase as we continue to expand our use of DocShifter.

This is significant for our clients who need the eCTD sequences to be published quickly, accurately and efficiently. "
Jennie MayDirector, Regulatory Operations - PharmaLex
"Very powerful tool for document conversion and generation. The DocShifter software goes further than our current needs, and from my point of view quite unique in the industry. Quick adaption due to user-friendly workflow creation functionalities. Possibility to create workflows in a user-friendly (non-IT) way. Possibilities for seamlessly integrations into existing solutions."
Kris V.ITS Business Partner, Clinical Development
"We are using DocShifter in conjunction with Documentum software. The rendition performance that is observed so far is more than 4000 documents per hour (on 1 single instance). The output provided is fully compliant to health authority specifications (FDA, EMA, PMDA, HC, SwissHealth, etc.) and is configurable for different countries. A true enterprise document conversion solution.”
Piyush J. Solution Manager
"We use DocShifter to prepare compliant, submission-ready PDF renditions for all regulatory content.

The product is reliable, extremely fast and produces output that is compliant with multiple Health Authorities."
Large US biotechnology companyRegulatory Information Systems Manager
"We implemented DocShifter into production and have converted over 35.000 documents. Our failure rate has dropped from over 10% to well under 0.1%. We have seen an astronomical improvement in our document conversion processes thanks to how easy DocShifter was to implement and to use. In the course of 12 months, we are going to convert more than 100.000 documents with DocShifter. Fantastic document conversion solution!”
Chris B. IT System Administrator - PeopleScout Technology
"We have documentation in different languages, but when converting everything to PDF for submissions, things got complicated really fast. Our rendition engine couldn't cope with all those fonts, and we lost a lot of time fixing problems that weren't supposed to be there in the first place. We decided to make a switch to DocShifter. Scalability during our peak times, ability to deal with multiple fonts, automation (conversion of source documents to simultaneous submission-ready PDFs for multiple health authorities) and performance. These are just some of the things that make DocShifter such a powerful rendering engine."
Jade O. Document Management Professional
"We selected DocShifter for the incredible ease-of-use, the simple configuration and implementation, the high-quality ICH compliant output, and the huge number of formats supported. Performance is excellent, and we reduced the number of rendition servers by a factor of 3. All of this, plus the company’s responsiveness made it an easy choice."
Regulatory Operations & Global Submissions SpecialistLarge pharmaceutical company
"DocShifter powers the document conversion solution in Generis’ new CARA cloud offering. “We already support many joint customers who have advanced document conversion requirements met by the integration of DocShifter with CARA. We are now happy to be able to offer this on a pre-built package with New CARA on our cloud for such customers.”
James KelleherCEO - Generis
"As we are in the middle of a paradigm shift from analogue to digital in Japan, I have been looking for the right solution to support this for many years. In DocShifter we have found a company with solutions that have been selected by organizations of all sizes because of their responsiveness, cost-effectiveness, class-leading performance and unique capabilities that rise above the competition.”
Kosuke OmodaPresident - eSA Japan
"One of the things we love about DocShifter is the graphic interface to configure file transformation flows. The user interface is very simple to use and rare to find within other similar document conversion products. Wide selection of connectors to different solutions (EIM & DMS systems) make DocShifter a great choice for our company as well. We also are very happy with the customer support we receive: extremely friendly and prompt.”
Nikita L.Information Management Consultant
"With DocShifter, we are seeing better performance with even less resources, compared to our previous solution. The deployment is very easy, and the utilization of hardware/software resources are extremely efficient. Thanks to DocShifter's architecture and not needing Office applications, we were able to save a lot of money and resources by the switch.”
