Ensuring quality is essential in every industry, but in the pharmaceutical sector, poor quality management can have serious—sometimes fatal—consequences. Think of health risks caused by incorrect formulations or outdated instructions, or the risk of losing a certification due to missing documentation during an audit. When personal data is involved, GDPR compliance also comes into play. Archive-IT ensures a highly secure process that meets the strictest regulatory standards.

The Pharmaceutical Sector
The pharmaceutical industry revolves around the research, development, and production of medications. These processes require significant investments in R&D. Once a medication is successfully developed, patents are often filed to protect its unique properties. Although some processes are already partially digital, crucial documentation — such as research records and evidence — often still exists in paper form.
Hybrid Information Management
This mix of physical and digital information creates complex workflows and generates large volumes of data. The result? Reduced efficiency, limited accessibility, and increased risks to data security. Yet, going fully digital isn’t always an option, making a hybrid approach inevitable.
With Archive-IT’s digital archiving solutions, you can bring structure to the information chaos — while retaining secure access to both paper and digital documents. This is critical in an industry where sensitive information must never fall into the wrong hands and often needs to be retained for decades —or even permanently.
Digitising Frequently Used Documents
Depending on your operations, retention policies, and quality standards, you may choose to digitise some documents while others remain in paper format. We recommend digitising documents that are frequently accessed or needed at multiple locations. Digitisation not only enhances accessibility but also enables full-text search, allowing you to unlock more value from your data and boost organisational efficiency.
Long-Term Retention
Archive-IT operates secure archive facilities housing millions of physical files. Organisations choose offsite archiving for various reasons — space limitations, increased efficiency, improved accessibility, and the need for enhanced data security. Given the wide range of information types in the pharmaceutical sector, we offer tailored solutions to meet your specific archiving needs.
Data Security
At Archive-IT, data security is our top priority. We are ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 certified, and our processes fully comply with GMP and GLP guidelines — key standards in the pharmaceutical industry.
Whether physical or digital, we go above and beyond to protect your information. All actions on archived documents are logged, and access is managed through a robust system of rights and authorisations. Our software solutions also support extensive management of both physical and digital information flows, allowing you to organise, consult, and track all data with ease and confidence.
