Over the past 15 years, sponsors and CROs have steadily adopted function-specific clinical technologies. Standalone eClinical applications, including EDC, CTMS, and eTMF, are now the norm, with newer purpose-built applications like study start-up gaining traction. These systems were implemented by functional area, creating application and process silos, which today is prompting an industrywide move to unify clinical operating environments.
The new Veeva 2018 Unified Clinical Operations Survey examines the life sciences industry’s progress toward a unified clinical environment by gathering the experiences and opinions of 331 clinical operations professionals from around the globe. This annual research details the drivers, barriers, and benefits of a unified clinical operating model and tracks the industry’s progress in its move to streamline clinical systems and processes. Nearly all respondents (99%) report the need to unify their clinical trial systems and processes. Of these respondents, 87% have, or plan to have, an initiative to unify their clinical application landscape.
