Tuesday 21 October 2008, Courtyard Philadelphia Downtown, United States
- How well are your outsourced trials working?
- How effective are your partnerships?
- Are you getting the best value?
- Where can you improve the overall value and efficiency of the trial?
Metrics are critical to answering these questions and assessing the status of outsourcing partnerships. In this full-day, hands-on workshop, we’ll show you how to build a Balanced Scorecard metrics system that gives you the information you need to create and maintain successfully outsourced clinical trials. We’ll look at metrics from a variety of angles and help you build your scorecard. We’ll cover the following topics:
- How do metrics translate into increased R&D productivity?
- What metrics should you gather to get accurate information?
- What metrics are most appropriate for different types of outsourcing situations?
- What internal metrics should you maintain?
- How can you use metrics to manage and reduce risk?
- What are the ideal metrics to include?
- How do you build your scorecard to make it effective and successful?
