Traditional document management systems (DMS) require significant IT infrastructure,
support and ongoing maintenance which are often cost- prohibitive for emerging biotech
and pharmaceutical (pharma) organizations. Additionally, validation and compliance
(21 CFR Part 11) programs often require substantial business resources and time.
When considering the infrastructure, time and resources, and ongoing support required
to effectively manage documents, a DMS solution can seem out of reach.

Octagon's Quantum Content Manager is an easily scalable solution that provides growing organizations full DMS functionality in a traditional
on-premise installation or in
a SaaS (Software as a Service), model. Content Manager provides library services, version control, authoring and review workflows, and electronic signatures in a collaborative and controlled environment. It has optional built-in rendering capabilities to efficiently create
e-Submission-ready final documents and it is integrated with Quantum Document Publisher and Submission Manager. This integration enables organizations to leverage the Quantum platform to join document and submission lifecycles. Quantum Content Manger was also developed to integrate with Octagon’s StartingPoint® eCTD document authoring template suite.

Growing biotech and pharma companies no longer need to compromise their expectations of document management systems. Octagon’s Quantum™ Content Manager in a SaaS model is a turn key approach
to robust DMS capabilities without the burden of maintaining a complex IT infrastructure.
Quantum’s Content Manager Module puts big DMS capabilities in reach for growing organizations.
