How to Optimize Clinical Study Planning & Operations with Automation & Digital Transformation

Life Sciences, Clinical Trials,
  • Wednesday, October 09, 2019

Clinical trials have evolved tremendously over the last two decades. Bigger. Global. More complex. More regulated. The development and execution of a clinical trial involves intense collaboration between sponsors—biotechs and pharmaceutical companies developing a drug—and contract research organizations (CROs) and other service providers. However, some things have barely changed. Ninety percent of the planning and outsourcing processes are manual, involving tremendous effort with limited accuracy. The industry needs a modern approach and new tools to efficiently plan, initiate and manage complex clinical operations and contracts.

Join this free webinar to learn about new strategies to increase efficiencies across all aspects of study planning and clinical data management. Topics to be discussed include:

  • Ending the pitfalls of Excel budgeting plus simulating clinical study budgets and operational scenarios in a few hours
  • How a digital transformation of clinical study plans, to RFP and contract can drive operational excellence
  • Automating RFP processes with digital templates and dynamic bid benchmarking to replace sending bid grids via email and manually managing responses
  • How bid and cost driver standardization increases bidding transparency and lowers costs
  • Replacing manual monthly Excel progress reports with sophisticated data-driven reporting to modernize contract reporting and accruals
