Data Quality is the Key to Veeva Success: Learn Why at Veeva Summit

For a large segment of the life sciences industry, Veeva has become THE strategic hub for regulated content and data. Its unified suite of applications is designed to improve collaboration, compliance, and speed to market, outshining many legacy systems that have been the go-to solutions for decades. And each year, industry leaders travel to the Veeva Summit: R&D and Quality in Boston to explore how to plan, integrate, and sustain the Veeva platform within modern digital ecosystems.

As a proven Veeva partner with many successful, large-scale migrations to the Veeva platform, we regularly sponsor the Veeva Summit to share our knowledge and strategies for success. Without fail, the most common question we get asked at our booth is “What is the key to a successful migration to the Veeva platform?” Some assume that as a modern SaaS platform, it’s ready to go out of the box. Others suggest that the initial configuration is what guarantees a successful digital transformation. While both have a degree of accuracy, the true key to success rests in launching your system with accurate data.

Data Quality Is the Key to Veeva Success

Without a doubt, data quality is the key to a successful migration to the Veeva platform. Organized, complete, and accurately classified data and metadata are essential to harness the power of the Veeva platform and support the compliance and process requirements that are critical to effective digital transformation. Other components can’t be ignored, but for true digital transformation that feeds long-term growth, data quality is critical.

Whether you’re implementing a single Veeva application or expanding across the full suite, your ability to unlock Veeva’s value is directly tied to the quality and integrity of the data that feeds it. That means your migration must be more than just technically correct: it must be strategically aligned, intelligently designed, and executed with deep awareness of the life sciences regulatory environment.

fme’s Migrations Deliver Data Quality

Migrating from legacy systems is a complex, high-stakes endeavor and every project comes with its own unique challenges. From fragmented repositories and inconsistent metadata to GxP compliance and validation requirements, your long-term success depends on how those challenges are handled from the start.

As a Gold Sponsor of the Veeva Summit, fme is proud to share real-world lessons from the field: how we’ve solved challenges, mitigated risks, and delivered success under pressure for the most demanding programs in the industry. We don’t just speak about possibilities: we show results.

With decades of experience and deep domain expertise, fme is the go-to partner for large-scale (and we mean very large), highly regulated Veeva migrations. We’ve supported clients with aggressive timelines, global scopes, and zero room for error, and we’ve done it with precision, strategy, and trust.

Trusted Expertise + Intelligent Accelerators = Strategic Success

fme is not just a transactional migration vendor—we are your strategic partner committed to long-term success. We know that no two organizations are alike, and neither are their migrations. Our proven, field-tested methodology is designed to be tailored to your business, technical, and regulatory needs. From full-scale global deployments to phased rollouts, we adapt to your size, timeline, and complexity, whether migrating thousands or millions of documents. Our comprehensive, full-lifecycle migration services are grounded in close collaboration and built to ensure a smooth, compliant experience.

To deliver at the scale and speed today’s life sciences leaders require, fme pairs expert consulting with AI-powered tools and certified accelerators that de-risk, streamline, and future-proof your migration. Here are two of our powerful tools:

MetadataAssist™

MetadataAssist uses automation and AI to streamline metadata analysis, enrichment, and mapping, significantly reducing manual effort and accelerating the preparation of high-quality metadata ahead of migration. This ensures that your Veeva environment is not only populated with the right data, but with data that’s clean, consistent, and aligned with your business logic.

migration-center®

Complementing this is migration-center®, fme’s Veeva-product-certified migration accelerator, purpose-built to simplify even the most complex, large-scale content migrations. Supporting over 250 source-to-target combinations, migration-center® handles the extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) of data from legacy systems, databases, file shares, and cloud platforms. The result is accurate, structured, and compliant data that supports your teams immediately upon deployment into Veeva.

Let’s Move Forward, Together!

Migrating to Veeva is a strategic move that sets the foundation for your future in regulated content and data management. With fme by your side, you’re backed by decades of life sciences experience, a tailored and proven methodology, and powerful accelerators that deliver unparallelled clarity, speed, and confidence.
