GAP records

DFU/GAP records are simply one more type of component that you need to manage and govern. Quill supports GAP records moving through a lifecycle where ownership and responsibility transfer from one department to the next. For example, from Research to Development to Regulatory. Key capabilities are version comparison and tracking the reason for change.

Authoring

Authoring automatically complies with the standard

Quill’s authoring templates guide the author and ensure compliance with the standard model. Picklists only offer valid values from the standard vocabulary.

Easy authoring

Easy authoring of data

The data authoring experience lets authors select the most appropriate units of measurement for single and multi-number data fields.

Optimised collaboration

Optimised collaboration

Creation and maintenance processes for authors, R&D, and reviewers are designed to take maximum advantage of component-based technologies. The latest digital collaboration features accelerate internal reviews.

Configurable lifecycle

Configurable lifecycle

Any given region, territory or country may have its own governance process. Quill supports this with configurable lifecycles/workflows. Configure all the stages in your governance process.

Record linkage

Record linkage

When GAP records are copied and promoted to the next stage in a lifecycle and link is created that allows you to easily walk backwards to see how a GAP record evolved.

Track reason for change

Track reason for change

When you need to understand when and why a certain decision was made, Quill lets you easily view the reasons for change for any given GAP record.

Preserve knowledge

Preserve knowledge

When each department is working in the same system and file formats for GAP records, no information is lost when records are transferred from one department to another.

Version compare

Version compare

The Version History feature provides a granular comparison of between two versions of a record. The comparison includes any comments made on a version.

Ingest GAP data

Ingest GAP data

Import data from other sources and then maintain it in Quill. Sources include Excel, databases and more. You may also maintain a link to an external dataset.

The pesticide and disinfectant industries are rapidly going through digital transformation. Their content and data ecosystems must evolve. Quill provides the tools to help you manage your digital content and data: structured digital labels, GAP records, AI profiles, and more.

What is a Component Content Management System (CCMS)?

In the world of structured authoring, digital documents are comprised of semantically identified components like Precaution Statements, Hazard Classifications and Directions for Use. Components can be work flowed in their own lifecycle, versioned and reused. Just like documents, components are an asset that must be managed. The software that does this is a CCMS.

How is Quill different from other tools?

A pesticide label contains a large amount of content and data. Therefore, the data model to store all the information in a digital label is large. It can be a challenge for label authors to learn the model. Quill helps authors learn the model through interactive prompting and at the same time ensures that they insert components at the appropriate locations. It is a unique author challenge and Quill provides the proper authoring experience.

What data sources and systems does Quill integrate and interoperate with?

The Quill authoring solution used by a pesticide company interoperates with the Quill reviewing solution used by a regulatory authority. This allows label authors to reuse content from a library of approved content offered by a regulatory authority. This would allow label authors to reuse content from a library of approved content offered by a regulatory authority. And it facilitates transferring the file between two systems as part of the registration review process, eliminating the emailing of files.

Do you offer onboarding and training services?

Yes. Our onboarding process is designed to help you quickly understand and leverage Quill's capabilities. Quill also provides dedicated training functionality for users who are new to authoring labels using a component editor and CCMS. We’ll design a component strategy for you and help you implement it.
