Octagon Research Solutions Selects TailWind's FieldSpace to Extend Reach of Their Regulatory, Clinical, and Compliance Solutions

TailWind Solutions announced today that they have entered into a contract with Octagon Research Solutions to support Octagon's broad platform of clinical, regulatory, and process improvement solutions.

San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) October 1, 2005 -- TailWind Solutions announced today that they have entered into a contract with Octagon Research Solutions to support Octagon's broad platform of clinical, regulatory, and process improvement solutions.

"We are very pleased that Octagon has licensed our product, FieldSpace, for implementation in key customer opportunities," said David Koehn, Founder and VP of Sales of TailWind Solutions. "Using FieldSpace, clinical and regulatory and other R&D functions can track and manage all the digital content and associated audits required for securing and tracking information to any number of places around the world."

"A large part of the cost of cataloging and tracking regulatory materials is due to paper-based processes resulting in errors, delays, and information and time lost," according to Jim Walker, CEO of Octagon Research Solutions.

"TailWind's Fieldspace enables users to distribute and track content without worry that they will lose control over those documents when the user is disconnected from the Web." The FieldSpace software reduces the time lost in tracking and updating materials associated with everything from digital R&D documentation to online training videos. The automation of this process once fully deployed can save significant dollars, by reducing the time taken to manage, control and deliver content throughout the drug approval process."

Octagon chose FieldSpace because the product meets their electronic delivery, security, mobility, and tracking requirements.

"Tailwind provides a browser-based, client-centered architecture that easily integrates into all backend server technologies, regardless of configuration", continues David Koehn. "FieldSpace enables information to be automatically collected, distributed, stored, tracked and accessed. Information is updated and made accessible after periodic connection to a network. Additionally, due to FieldSpace's encryption technology, data confidentiality is secured. These are all vitally important when it comes to the compliance and regulatory aspects of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology product development lifecycle." The benefits of FieldSpace are relevant across all industries where the secure distribution, monitoring and tracking of sensitive data to workers is required for control, tracking and compliance.
