Improving Trial Outcomes: How Organizations Can Leverage E-Clinical Integration for Reducing Costs and Gaining Efficiencies

Tuesday – September 14, 2010 / 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT – Free Attendance

Two approaches to achieving integrated e-Clinical systems are examined:

• Creating an entire suite of software from scratch
• Evolving the existing patchwork toward the distant goal of a unified whole

The Objective of this Webinar

This webcast will illustrate the risks inherent in creating entirely new, large integrated systems. In particular, the roles of management expectations, stability of specifications, and organizational resistance to change will be stressed.

Featuring

Life sciences companies have spent years and countless dollars chasing the dream of seamless interoperability between clinical saftey systems. Yet today's e-clinical software remains a patchwork of point solutions. Integrating these components into a seamless whole could lead to wholesale improvements in the speed, cost and quality of clinical information processing. Nonetheless, various attempts at producing fully integrated systems have succeeded mainly in reducing the treasuries of their sponsors with little evident gain.
