Many documents require the input of multiple people, be they representatives of
different corporate departments and/or subject matter experts. Proposals and
regulatory submissions are classic examples. The common feature is that multiple
people are required to author the document – not just review it.
By making the document available through PleaseReview, paragraphs or entire
sections can be allocated to different contributors for download and editing.
Completed EditZones can then be published for review whilst other EditZones are
still being edited. In this way, the overall document creation process is a
single seamless process making it significantly quicker and costs are minimized
by removing management overhead.
Take a look at these humorous cartoons to see if you
recognize any of the scenarios in your organization.

The fundamental benefits are time and cost savings for those who create and review documents.
The ability to create, review and publish documents more quickly can provide a number of less tangible benefits,
such as faster delivery of proposals, an enhanced ability to comply with specific legal requirements,
better version control, and less reliance on emailing documents to collaborators.”

CANDU Owners Group is still in a trial roll out phase of PleaseReview, but from my
point of view this product greatly reduces the effort required to administer multi
phase reviews. Feedback from reviewers has been that PleaseReview is easy to use
and that the ability to thread comments adds to the quality of the review.”
John Skears, Program Manager - CANDU Owners Group | nuclear

PleaseReview offers a number of useful features, such as confidential review, and the ability to
limit particular users’ edits to specific 'zones' within a document. Because the review process tracks changes
in a database and not in the native document application, an independent audit trail can be established
for all changes to a document. This is particularly important in compliance-focused environments.”

With PleaseReview, all comments are made on a single draft of the document,
and as every reviewer can see comments from other reviewers there are no duplications -
if they disagree, they can indicate that within the comments.
It's all so much more civilized and everyone gets to really collaborate on the review.”
Peggy Berry, Vice President and Head of Quality & Regulatory Affairs -
Amarin Corporation| life sciences
