Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Structured Content Authoring (SCA) tools are here. The challenge of seamlessly integrating these technologies into compliant and efficient workflows is reshaping the regulatory document development process. This session will delve into the balance and interdependence of four pillars (technology, process, people, and organization) to drive the business value of these tools. The interplay of these elements stokes an environment of thriving innovation, leading to enhanced efficiency, quality, and value proposition for the underlying business. AI/SCA have been thoroughly discussed in the regulatory writing process. Now there is focus on evolving technologies, the challenge lies in integrating these advancements into our workflows and processes, or implementing change management processes to allow for their use. Utilizing these tools coupled with organizational and process driven acceleration levers will condense the time to document approval and decrease the number of resources need to produce these documents. Moreover, the concerted and collaborative efforts across various functions, ranging from clinical sciences to biostatistics programming to review and approval pathways, ensures a thorough and compliant documentation process. It is time to focus and clearly define, emphasize, and promote the importance of the human element in the utilization of these tools, the people and the processes, at the heart of transformative authoring. Attendees will gain insights into the strategic integration of the four pillars in medical writing, drawing real-world use cases of these technologies in industry. These strategies, while transformative, do not necessitate a radical shift when applied independently. Instead, their true power lies in their harmonious application, which collectively refines traditional authoring paradigms.

Learning Objectives

Analyze the business value of AI and Structured Content Authoring tools in Regulatory Medical Writing to enhance efficiency and compliance; Evaluate process modifications in document development resulting from technology innovations to optimize workflow; Develop strategies to implement change management and organizational shifts that support technology-driven solutions.
