End-to-End Study Start-Up in One Application

³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ Study Startup accelerates time to site activation by connecting global teams and enabling best practices for managing country and site start-up processes.

Because study start-up documentation and data (including milestone information, baseline, projected, and actual dates) are managed in a single system, sponsors and CROs have early visibility to bottlenecks associated with events on the critical path to activation. As a result, resources can be more efficiently allocated and adjusted based on start-up progress.
