In the highly regulated and competitive pharmaceutical industry, corporate records management programs have become indispensable to the continued well-being of the organization.  Seeking compliance with requirements such as 21 CFR Part 11, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, pharmaceutical companies are actively seeking records management software and services to assist them in their efforts.

Under these requirements, pharmaceutical records, including product batch and history files, research notebooks, and intellectual property files must all now be governed by corporate policies implemented throughout their life cycle.  Inherent in these policies is the mandatory ability to restrict, locate, track, and audit access to all such records.  Increasingly, the pharmaceutical industry is turning to companies like Infolinx to ensure regulatory compliance and establish programs reflecting best records management practices.
