How to Create CTMS Flexibility

Traditionally, CTMS vendors follow a standard pricing model in which customers are required to sign a long-term contract and pay for features they do not need—a system which provides advantages to the vendor, but few advantages to the buyer (besides ensuring long-term access to a system).  

A new alternative is a flexible subscription model. Instead of committing to services ahead of time, sponsors can select and pay for services on a month-by-month basis. This model also enables team and feature scalability while supporting budget-sensitive studies and programs. True affordability isn’t just the price tag—it’s giving you what you need, not what you don’t.

Consequences of Inaccessible CTMS Data

Clinical trial data has emerged as an essential contributor to the healthcare industry, driving innovation in both technology and treatment. Effective trial management not only generates quality data, but can impact the ability of that data to be put to use—driving stronger insights, improved processes, and more effective oversight, all while powering better outcomes.  

But data flexibility and portability are key to this effort. When spread across multiple different systems, data cannot easily be accessed or packaged. Disparate and/or discordant systems make it hard for data to be utilized in an all-inclusive way to drive quality decision-making.

For example, including as a standard feature comprehensive and updated support materials in a variety of formats, like quick-start guides, videos and training manuals, or even a searchable knowledge database. A reasonably-priced solution also enables clients to purchase optional services such as validation documentation when the need arises -- not by inflating the pricing for all clients.
