Biomedical Companies and Technical Writing: It’s a Match!

To move a new product from development to market and gain FDA approval, a small bio-med firm determined that at least twelve new SOPs would be required. These SOPs ranged in complexity but would require the expertise and full attention of their four-person in-house technical writing team for 2-3 months.

Essential Data provided four writers to backfill the internal technical writing team to temporarily take over and maintain the existing SOP maintenance workflow. The first group of two remote writers was trained by one of the company’s internal writers. This allowed three of the company’s technical writers to focus immediately on the new product documentation. After two weeks, the second team of two remote writers joined and were trained by their Essential Data teammates. This freed up the remaining company writer and allowed the entire in-house technical writing team to focus their expertise and effort on the new product SOPs and related documentation.

With the help of Essential Data’s top-notch technical writers, the BioMed firm was able to:

• Focus in-house talent and expertise to address critical needs
• Manage project costs and timelines more effectively using in-house expertise
• Maintain headcount and long-term staffing objectives
• Successfully bring their product to market while maintaining company operations and financial objectives
