The process of delivering these safety report notifications, however, was causing compliance challenges for the CRO as there was no solution to keep track of report distribution and acknowledgement. Additionally, because this service was offered globally, there was no harmonized process to manage regional considerations. As a result, the CRO struggled to meet the service requirements of clients in a cost-effective and efficient way.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Challenges<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Lack of global process harmonization for safety reporting<\/li>\n<li>Reliance on outdated, inefficient methods of distribution\u00a0 for\u00a0 investigator\u00a0 notification<\/li>\n<li>Rapidly increasing book of business for safety reporting services, and, consequently, steadily increasing pressure on staff<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Euclid Circular B Light', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 37px; letter-spacing: -0.33px;\">Solution evaluation<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The evaluation project ran for several years and had two key objectives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Implement a global safety reporting process, overseen by CRO\u2019s pharmacovigilance department.

The selection was made on the basis of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ease of use for investigator sites<\/li>\n<li>Integration of fax and email delivery options<\/li>\n<li>Cost<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The CRO worked in partnership with ArisGlobal to enhance the application platform, drawing on our substantial experience of providing investigator notification services.<\/p>\n<h3>Implementation Approach \/ Challenges &amp; Timelines<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arisglobal.com\/\">ArisGlobal<\/a> offered a fully validated application hosted on a managed cloud to minimize the IT effort at customer side. The detailed implementation and study\/sponsor onboarding plan was prepared and executed by ArisGlobal , who worked jointly with the CRO team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Project Duration: <\/strong>6 months
