  1. Quick and easy site assessment starts with VISTA! VISTA

  2. The first step in study start-up: assessment of prospective sites • How is it done? • Manually, via paper-based questionnaire (faxed, mailed), e-mail, telephone calls, or on-site visit • How long does it take? • Many hours of individuals’ time • PIs/coordinators • Feasibility group • CRAs • Project Managers • 1 to 4 weeks to complete

  3. What’s wrong with manual site assessment? • Laborious, time consuming gathering of site information • Hours spent nudging site staff to provide complete information • Painstaking tracking of sites’ responses • Valuable site data not readily available for future studies • Paper-based information is often transferred to Excel, allowing for errors to be introduced

  4. What’s wrong with manual site assessment? Technical assessment for EDC trials • Investigator frustration due to lack of technical knowledge • Potential to jeopardize sponsor/PI relationship • Possible investigator drop-out and loss of valuable site • Self-reported information is notoriously inaccurate

  5. What’s wrong with manual site assessment? Technical assessment for EDC trials • Paper-based information is not readily accessible to assist with remediation • Antiquated paper-based capture of technology information is inconsistent with the advancement of EDC

  6. What’s wrong with manual site assessment? • A manual approach means: • Wasted time and money • Personal frustration for PIs and CRAs • Unreliable data • Delayed study start-up There is a better way…

  7. A better way… • VISTA

  8. What is VISTA? • Unique, web-based site assessment management service • Customizable site feasibility and qualification questionnaires • Automated technical assessments specifically designed for use by non-technical people in clinical research  Automated vs. manual Electronic vs. paper Efficient vs. time-consuming Economical vs. costly Easy vs. labor-intensive

  9. What will be my ROI? The VISTA promise… • Avoid costly start-up delays by… • Gathering site assessment information quickly and easily • Enhancing communication flows between sites and clinical staff • Improve staff efficiency/productivity • Prioritize site visits based on real time site responses • Capture/store valuable site information for future studies • Shorten study timeline: 1 to 4 weeks • Export information to existing clinical trial and data systems

  10. What will be my ROI? The VISTA promise for EDC trials… • Avoid budget overruns due to: • Need to recruit additional sites • Unanticipated technical problems • Cost-effectively assess technology at international sites • Accurately forecast cost of IT upgrade needs, provisioning, connectivity, etc. • Mitigate risk of technology failure before study start

  11. Realize the many benefits of VISTA today • Easy to use • Fast • Accurate • Comprehensive • Flexible • Whatever your information needs, we have a customized solution for you • Cost-saving
