BPM-Based Case Management Approach to Optimizing Clinical Trial Efficiency
Sponsored by Pegasystems

Business Process Management (BPM) software offers liberation in the planning and management of clinical trials today. SmartBPM provides the components for automating critical clinical trial processes ranging from protocol development and patient enrollment to site management and investigator payments. Advantages are:

  • Potentially stunning return on investment at multiple levels.
  • A 500%, or better, increase in application development time by directly executing business requirements
  • Improved customer retention
  • A 50% possible reduction in training time

Discovered is opportunity to enhance relationships with investigators, subjects, and regulators while bringing momentum to a technology-impaired study startup phase. Learn more about SmartBPM in this complimentary white paper.



Cmed paper
Next-gen Cloud-based eClinical
Sponsored by Cmed Technology

New technologies are available to leverage Cloud Computing in  managing clinical trial data. This paper discusses a next generation eClinical
platform that:

  • Speeds trial set up
  • Accommodates changes with zero downtime
  • Integrates effectively with other clinical trial technology systems

It is offered with either software-as-a-service (SaaS), or turnkey infrastructure options in which the user organization operates their own cloud using their IT teams, within their data centers. Read this paper to learn and decide how best to leverage cloud computing’s many strengths for your organization’s  particular needs.
