Q-Config™ in Use

Major U.S. Pharmaceutical Company• Challenge: Deploy EMC Documentum DCM in 5

different locations• Solution: Impact set up a new DCM application with

all necessary configurations for one site. Using Q-Config™, the customer was able to use the same basic configuration for faster implementation and was able to upgrade and migrate all 5 sites in one year (vs. the two years it took them to roll out the initial system)


16

Q-Config™ in Use

Global Life Sciences Company• Challenge: Evolve from an older customized

compliance application to a more standardized DCM application

• Solution: Using Q-Config™, the customer was able to set up the development environment quicker and do what-if studies. Once the set-up was complete, the customer was able to transfer the configuration from Dev to Test to Production in 20% of the time


17

Q-Config™ in Use

Specialty U.S. Healthcare Company• Challenge: Set up and configure new systems in 8

weeks based on the purchase of another company division

• Solution: Using Q-Config™ Impact duplicated the entire configuration and set up three environments (Dev, Test/Validate and Production) 2 weeks ahead of schedule
