Controlled Document
Management for Life Sciences

Zentixs Docs is a life sciences document management system (DMS) for creating, reviewing, approving, controlling, distributing, and archiving regulated GxP documents. Built for pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, CRO, and laboratory organizations, it provides version control, audit trails, access controls, and compliant document workflows.

Controlled Document Management

Document Control Workflow

A structured and compliant approach to managing controlled documents from initial preparation through final archival.

STEP 01
Document Drafting

Create controlled documents using standardized templates, structured content, unique document identifiers, version controls, and mandatory metadata to establish consistency across the document lifecycle.

STEP 02
Workflow Initiation

Initiate configurable document workflows with defined ownership, document classification, reviewer assignments, approval hierarchies, and lifecycle requirements aligned with established quality procedures.

STEP 03
Document Review

Execute structured review workflows with role-based routing, documented comments, revision tracking, and traceable review histories to support procedural accuracy and quality oversight.

STEP 04
Digital Signing

Execute authorized digital signing workflows with signer authentication, timestamps, and traceable signing records to establish document authorization and maintain the integrity of approval processes.

STEP 05
Training & Effectiveness

Link controlled documents to personnel training workflows, assign training based on document applicability and user roles, and track completion, assessment outcomes, and training effectiveness in accordance with defined procedures.

STEP 06
Issuance & Distribution

Release approved documents through controlled issuance workflows, manage effective versions, and distribute documents according to role-based access permissions, document applicability, and effective date requirements.

STEP 07
Reconciliation & Recall

Manage controlled copy reconciliation, document withdrawal, superseded version replacement, and recall activities to minimize the risk of obsolete or unauthorized documents remaining in operational use.

STEP 08
Archival & Retention

Archive superseded and obsolete documents with preserved version histories, lifecycle records, access controls, and retention configurations to support audit readiness, regulatory inspections, and authorized retrieval.

Document Control, Engineered for Life Sciences

Manage the complete document lifecycle through structured workflows, controlled distribution, revision traceability, and centralized governance for regulated life sciences documentation.

Controlled Document Templates

Standardize SOPs, STPs, protocols, batch manufacturing records, and quality documents using predefined templates, structured metadata, and controlled formatting.

Centralized Document Repository

Maintain a centralized, searchable repository for GxP documents, quality records, laboratory procedures, and controlled documentation across departments.

Role-Based Access Control

Enforce role-based permissions for document creation, review, approval, modification, distribution, and retrieval to protect sensitive quality information.

Version Control & Revision History

Maintain document version histories with traceable revisions, change records, approval status, and access to superseded versions.

Periodic Document Review

Schedule periodic document reviews, assign review responsibilities, and track completion to maintain document accuracy and procedural relevance.

Controlled Copy Management

Track controlled document copies through registers or barcode-based identification, supporting issuance, reconciliation, withdrawal, and recall.

Intelligent Search & Retrieval

Find documents using metadata, document identifiers, keywords, classifications, and indexed content to accelerate access during audits, inspections, and daily operations.

Compliant Document Archival

Preserve obsolete and superseded documents with historical versions, retention controls, and authorized retrieval to support long-term record preservation and audit readiness.

Automated Notifications & Reminders

Trigger configurable notifications for pending reviews, approval tasks, upcoming review dates, document expiry, training assignments, and overdue actions.

AI Assisted Document Management

Zentixs Docs uses AI to assist users with document understanding, drafting, comparison,
and information discovery while keeping document approval under human control.

AI Document Summarization

AI Document Summarization

AI Document Summarization generates concise summaries of lengthy SOPs, protocols, procedures, and other controlled documents, helping users quickly identify key information and improve document review efficiency. The original document remains the authoritative controlled source, while AI-generated summaries support faster understanding without replacing the approved document.

AI SOP Generation

AI SOP Generation

AI SOP Generation uses artificial intelligence to create structured draft Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) from user-provided information, requirements, and prompts, helping streamline document preparation. AI-generated SOP drafts remain subject to review, revision, approval, and document control by authorized personnel before becoming controlled documents.

AI Version Compare

AI Version Compare

AI Version Compare uses artificial intelligence to identify and highlight differences between versions of SOPs, protocols, forms, and other controlled documents, supporting document review and revision management. It helps users quickly identify changes while keeping the organization’s established document control, review, and approval processes as the authoritative workflow.

AI Keyword Search

AI Keyword Search

AI Keyword Search enables users to find relevant SOPs, procedures, records, and other controlled documents using keywords, contextual terms, and document content rather than relying solely on exact document names or folder locations. AI-assisted search improves information discovery across the document repository while allowing users to access and verify the original controlled documents.

Document Version Comparison & Revision Tracking

Zentixs Docs provides a structured document lifecycle — from creation and review through approval, issuance, and compliant archival — all in one controlled environment.

01
Compare Document Versions

Compare current and previous versions of SOPs, protocols, procedures, forms, and other controlled documents to identify revisions before approval.

02
Review & Collaborate

Review changes between document versions to understand what has been added, modified, or removed during the document revision cycle.

03
AI-Assisted Change Detection

Use AI-assisted document comparison to help identify and highlight differences across document versions, supporting faster and more focused review.

04
Review & Approval

Use version comparison as part of the controlled document review process while authorized users retain responsibility for final review, approval, and release.

Stay Ready for Every Audit & Inspection
