Write Instructions for Use (IFU) and other documentation in a user-friendly CCMS

In the highly regulated industries of Pharmaceuticals and Medical Technology, a Component Content Management System (CCMS) is a powerful tool. Structured Authoring ensures accuracy, consistency, and reliability. The user-friendly online editor lets you easily reuse content in a structured authoring system without having to work directly with the XML.

And because the Paligo CCMS is cloud-based, collaboration in a distributed global team is no problem.

“If you really value the content you're producing, you should be using an XML-based authoring tool. Paligo is best in class”

All content stored in a central repository

A CCMS stores all content centrally in the cloud, so technical writers and collaborators are all on the same page at all times. There's no need to worry about shuffling files between computers or separate servers.

This makes it easy to update all versions quickly and easily using the most up-to-date and compliant content. The Paligo single-source solution allows Pharma companies, medical device manufacturers, biotech companies, and other FDA-regulated Life Sciences industries to stay on top of the latest changes and requirements.

“The ability to cross-reference and reuse content allows our technical writers to be succinct in topics while still presenting useful information across multiple products with a consistent message throughout”
