Case Study In Communications
Improvement

Starting Position
Our client is a leading source of intelligent information for businesses and professionals. However, because
of its scale of business, it was suffering from bottle-necked communications from mid-level
management, which was adversely affecting their execution, management and alignment.

The Best Practices Advantage
Our major task was to help the client identify the cause of the communication gap by examining
communication best practices of high-performing organizations. Here, we began by discovering where our
client lied among its competitors in terms of communication strength. Our client was in the bottom 1/5:

The Best Practices Advantage
We then performed evidence-based benchmarks, analyzed statistical anomalies and conducted deep-dive
interviews. For example, we found that on average, companies allot more than 40% of their communications
training time to formal training to However, our client spends only 15% of time on formalized training.

To watch the on-demand webinar associated with this presentation, please visit: https://go.veeva.com/closed-loop-training-compliance-registration Efficiently managing GxP training content through a unified learning management system (LMS) is crucial to meet global compliance for life sciences companies. But legacy approaches and disparate technologies prevent them from doing so. Today, many biopharma companies use one system to manage training and the other to manage standard operating procedures (SOPs), policies, work instructions, and other critical documents. These disconnected environments require extensive configuration and integration, reducing compliance visibility, and creating a barrier between content creation and consumption. In this webinar, John Constantine, SVP of Talent Solutions at Orchestrall, and Kent Malmros, Senior Director of Vault Training at Veeva Systems, will discuss why many life sciences companies are modernizing learning management with a unified training platform. They will share how unifying document management and training in a single platform ensures the traceability of training materials from creation to consumption, enabling closed-loop compliance. By attending this webinar, you will learn: How to address common challenges in building an effective GxP training program Best practices of creating an enterprise-wide learning strategy How a unified GxP training environment delivers better training and quality outcomes Who Will Benefit Director/Manager of Quality Training Compliance Training Manager/Director Compliance Policy and Training, Manager/Director Director/Manager, QA Training Document Control and Training Manager VP/Director of Quality and Compliance (QA or QC), Quality Systems VP/Director of Information Technology, Quality Management Systems, Quality Systems VP/Director Clinical Operations
