Archiving

Sequani archive is used to offer data retention on studies conducted at Sequani and a contract archive service.  The archive maintains all records in accordance with Company procedures and Regulatory requirements. 

For study archive data in either paper or electronic form together with other associated materials are retained for all studies in order that a study may be reconstructed at a later date should be necessary.  In addition further documentation concerning the facility, equipment, staff and procedures which is required to support the conduct of regulatory studies is also retained. 

All of these materials are retained within the Sequani archive facility on site in a secure environment designed to protect the materials form loss, damage or deterioration. 

The facility has extensive experience in both client and regulatory inspections and has fully utilised this experience in the design and operation of the Archive facility. 

The archive has a full time, dedicated staff who are responsible for the materials archived.  A full cataloguing system and database is in place which enables rapid identification, location and retrieval of stored materials. 

Access to the archive is strictly controlled and security features include an independent alarm system and an automatic fire suppression system using carbon dioxide gas. Environmental monitoring is performed routinely to ensure that materials are stored under suitable conditions.  All of these procedures contribute towards the safe and secure environment in which records are maintained. 

Sequani is always pleased to quote for retention of archived materials.
