2021 CRO Leadership Awards Winner Video Presentation

Ed Miseta, chief editor of Clinical Leader, introduces the 2021 CRO Leadership Awards. In this video, Ed provides a bit of background on why these awards were created and is joined by guests Heather Seasholtz, Director, Americas Operations at DIA as well as Kevin Olson, CEO of ISR Reports as they discuss the important role CROs play in the life sciences industry.

Based on research from ISR Report’s Contract Research Quality Benchmarking annual online surveys, nearly 60 contract research organizations were evaluated on more than 20 different performance metrics. Research participants were recruited from biopharmaceutical and medical device companies of all sizes and were screened for decision-making influence and authority when it comes to working with contract research suppliers. Respondents only evaluated companies with which they have worked on an outsourced project in the last 18 months. This level of qualification ensures that quality rates come from actual involvement with a business and that companies identified as leaders are backed by experiential data.

Categories awarded include Capabilities, Compatibility, Expertise, Quality, and Reliability.
