Prove the procedure was correct on the day it was followed.
SOPs, runbooks, and work instructions with named approvers, signed revisions, and a clear history of what changed. Checks can run in your own environment, so evidence can be produced without your credentials leaving your control.
Approved once, true for a while
A procedure is approved against the system as it stood that quarter. The system keeps moving. The approval does not, and nothing in the document knows the difference.
Evidence is assembled after the fact
When someone asks what the procedure said in March, the answer is reconstructed from exports, tickets and email threads, under time pressure, by whoever still remembers.
Editing in place destroys the record
Overwriting a controlled document erases the only proof that the previous version was ever in force, which is precisely the thing being asked about.
Bring procedures under control
Import what exists or capture it from the real system. Every save is tracked so the history does not disappear.
Route through approval
Named approvers sign electronically against a flow you define, with the decision and its signer recorded.
Verify on your infrastructure
The documented procedure is re-run behind your firewall, with your credentials. Secrets and screenshots never leave your network.
Every version stays in the record
A change publishes as a new official revision. The prior one stays intact, so teams can see what was active before it changed.
The record answers the question before it is asked.
- Signed revisions with the approver and approval time on the record
- Sealed PDFs that can be checked against the original
- An audit trail that reconstructs the state of any document at any date
- Regulation monitoring that flags relevant changes with sources
- Scheduled checks, so a procedure that quietly stopped matching the system appears as a drafted revision
- Checks on your own machines, your own AI keys, single sign-on, SLAs, and dedicated support
Working on guidance your customers follow unsupervised rather than procedures under control? Same capture, same verification loop, different burden of proof.
Customer guidanceControlled procedure questions, answered.
What are controlled procedures in InteractiveDox?
Controlled procedures are SOPs, runbooks, work instructions, or controlled documents that need formal approval, revision history, and evidence that the procedure still matches the system or rule it describes.
How does InteractiveDox preserve procedure history?
Approved changes publish as new official versions instead of overwriting the old one. The prior version stays intact, with records of what changed, who approved it, and when it became official.
Can InteractiveDox support regulated operations?
Yes. InteractiveDox supports approval workflows, signed revisions, audit history, regulation monitoring, and scheduled verification for teams that need controlled documents.
Does InteractiveDox automatically approve controlled document changes?
No. InteractiveDox can find outdated steps and draft the revision, but authorized approvers decide what becomes official.
