Envision Pharma Group acquires doDOC to enable seamless document collaboration as part of iEnvision, its global medical affairs platform

Envision Pharma Group (“Envision” or the “Company”), a leading global technology-enabled scientific communications company, is pleased to announce the acquisition of doDOC Corp., a leader in document collaborative review, editing, and authoring.  

doDOC is an innovative, best-in-class, Software as a Service (SaaS)-based platform that enables simultaneous collaboration in the review, editing, and authoring of documents among multiple users. Designed for the pharma and life sciences industries, it offers significant industry-specific advantages over general document authoring solutions in the market today.

While customers will have the choice to deploy doDOC standalone, the solution will be seamlessly integrated with Envision’s leading medical affairs platform, iEnvision. This unlocks the huge potential for customers to allow real time in-line editing of medical affairs documents, delivering efficiency gains of around 70% versus document processes without doDOC.

Founded in 2015 in Boston, MA, with a European base in Coimbra, Portugal, the company will operate as a business unit under its current brand and will continue to be led by doDOC CEO and co-founder, Federico Cismondi.

David Thompson, CEO, Envision, said, “Bringing doDOC into the Envision family enables us to continue to increase our innovative technology offerings to support life science companies’ goals in becoming ever more efficient and effective in the communication of key scientific data. doDOC is the standout company in its field and, critically, shares our values and commitment to working collaboratively to provide smart solutions that ensure our clients’ success. It will also allow us to consider developing capabilities that enable us to spread beyond our medical affairs client base, including supporting client commercial activities.”

“Envision’s acquisition of doDOC is great for our customers and employees. It allows doDOC to join a proven medical affairs technology leader and advance our solutions for the industry,” said Federico Cismondi, CEO, doDOC. “Most importantly, our companies share a commitment to provide industry-leading innovate solutions and to work together in a collaborative way to ensure our customers’ success.”

Manish Goel, Global Head of Envision Technology Solutions, added, “With our first clients now live on an integrated doDOC and iEnvision platform, we have a capability that no one else in the market can credibly claim as part of their solution. With doDOC as part of Envision Pharma Group, we can broaden our technology capabilities, creating efficiencies for clients and adding value as a strategic partner to deepen our client relationships.”
