CRO-BOST (CRO Business Operating System)
CROs are increasingly facing many challenges driven by an unprecedented growth of outsourced preclinical and clinical trials worldwide.
Some of the key challenges driven by Sponsor companies include:
- Higher levels of access and visibility into study execution
- QA/QC and GxP assurance
- Seamless and secure transfer of data in standardized
- formats during and after study execution
- Information security and audit traceability
- Early warning of safety or other issues
Sponsor companies are also forging strategic partnering alliances with selected CROs and are expecting to have visibility into their study programs in terms of schedules, costs, resources, compliance, and adherence to contractual stipulations.
In parallel, the twin effects of outsourcing growth and competitive pressures are forcing CROs to operate globally in challenging international environments, yet offer the same service level of quality and consistency from far-flung study sites – and to multiple clients.
PointCross’ CRO-BOS™ solution is designed from the grounds-up to address the types of challenges faced by global CRO enterprises that have to interface with multiple partner or client companies. It is offered either on the basis of a SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) or as an enterprise deployment.
CRO-BOS is built on Orchestra™, a scalable, secure SOA platform. CRO-BOS is essentially a set of bundled applications that enables a CRO to consistently and effectively manage its business globally.
Available modules include:
- Proposal Management and Sales support
- Contracts Management
- Technical and Programmatic Operations
