Sponsors frequently aim to enhance the efficiency of the study startup process. However, this process often involves manual workflows encompassing site identification, contracting, submissions, and more, resulting in slow and unpredictable progress.

Advancements in technology have led to the development of sophisticated and purpose-driven tools that automate administrative tasks and offer oversight. This enables sponsors and contract research organizations (CROs) to standardize and streamline their programs, resulting in a seamless process.
