At Zinc Ahead, we know the life sciences industry inside out. Not only are we a pure-play compliance solutions provider, but our team of Account Managers all have first-hand experience of copy approval in the life sciences industry.

We have successfully implemented Zinc MAPS in over 100 companies, building a wealth of knowledge on how best to transition teams from traditional approval processes to Zinc MAPS.

Helpdesk

Helpdesk

Our helpdesk is staffed by Zinc Ahead employees who have deep expertise on every aspect of Zinc MAPS. They can help you with any problem you have.

We know you don’t work nine to five, so neither do we. Our helpdesk is open 24 hours a day, so users can get help and support whenever they need it. Our dedication to helping you find the right answers to your questions is one of the reasons our customer satisfaction is so high.

Account Management

Account Management

All of our Account Managers at Zinc Ahead have worked in the life sciences industry, on either the client or agency side, before joining us. In fact, they have all used Zinc MAPS in their previous roles, giving them a unique and extremely valuable insight into how to get the most from a Zinc MAPS implementation.

As a client of Zinc Ahead, you will have a named Account Manager who will help and support you from the very first day of implementation planning.

On-site Support

On-site Support

Zinc Ahead provides comprehensive training for every user of Zinc MAPS. In addition, we provide continual on-line help, refresher videos, and of course, the helpdesk.

However, our experience shows that nothing beats one of our Account Managers being on-site during the first few weeks of a new Zinc MAPS implementation. It is for this reason that we provide on-site support as standard for each Zinc MAPS project, and continue to provide it as necessary on an ongoing basis.

Hosting

Hosting

By implementing Zinc MAPS for your company, you automatically benefit from a world-class hosting environment for your application servers. We only host Zinc MAPS at sites with the very highest standards of security, monitoring and uptime so you can rest assured that your data is accessible whenever you need it, but always secure.

Backup

Backup

Our hosting package ensures that your data is backed-up to a remote data centre every day, guaranteeing data integrity in the event of even the most serious incident. In addition, our servers are fully load-balanced for even more resilience.

Business Continuity

Business Continuity

At Zinc Ahead we understand the importance of system uptime and the need to plan for any event, however unlikely. Our business continuity plan ensures data integrity and restoration of Zinc MAPS access in the event of even the most serious incident.
