WORKSHOP A
Review eTMF System Capabilities and Needs to Create a Clear Process and Efficient Ways to Utilise the System
An eTMF system is no longer something that organisations consider to be an optional extra. It’s now recognised as an essential tool that can help with the basic functions of collecting, sorting and ensuring the quality of your documents to ensure that the trial is GCP compliant. Further, it can and should be a critical tool to facilitate study management. Whether you have a purpose-designed eTMF system or a general document management system, you will need to have a process in place to utilise this technology strategically to improve your process and ensure alignment with your eTMF system. During this workshop, attendees will work their way through typical eTMF system functionality and align this with clinical trial processes to walk away with the understanding to:
  • Have full control and oversight of your eTMF system, so it becomes a user-friendly tool for study management
  • Understand enhancements and system updates
  • Create an efficient eTMF process workflow process, aligned with the way that trial documents are used and created
  • Utilise your technology to apply quality control
  • Have strategic processes to collect and file documents
*This workshop includes a 30-minute networking break.

WORKSHOP B
Select and Implement an Out-of-the-Box eTMF System – An Interactive Workshop
Vetting eTMF systems can be a very large undertaking whether your company is large or small. The implementation project can be even larger and take extended time unless tight controls for scope and activity completion are adhered to by all. For the best chance of success, it is important to 1) use available tools/resources where they exist so as to not reinvent the wheel; 2) assign the right people to the project; and 3) garner heavy investment from senior management to ensure prioritisation in the project team members’ work schedules. This workshop will utilise a very recent, very successful case study of a small biotech company to review, step by step, through the eTMF system selection process and 21-day implementation project. Goals of the workshop attendees are:
  • Create the scope of the project, beginning with the development of the questions to understand the goals of the project from start to finish
  • Use the proper tool for the creation of the RFP for facilitating vendor vetting and selection
  • See the request for project approval and funding through the eyes of senior management
  • Review the critical-to-success roles on the eTMF system implementation team
  • Evaluate the project plan template determine and preempt possible delay and pitfalls
*This workshop includes a 30-minute networking break.
