WHAT SETS US APART

Our Team of Professionals

At CROfessionals, we know that quality clinical research begins with great people,
working side by side to solve some of research's toughest problems.

So we have invested in what we like to call our dream team - extremely
knowledgeable professionals who are well-credentialed in a variety of clinical research
disciplines. Individuals who listen closely, communicate honestly, and think ahead, as
well as out of the hexagon - always ready to respond quickly and effectively to
emergent circumstances and changing needs.

Highly trained project managers and clinical research associates help coordinate and
conduct your study, while also advising project teams and monitoring adverse events.
Regulatory experts maximize your research dollars with the right study strategies and
concomitant design. Quality Assurance specialists guarantee that patient ethics are
protected and data integrity, maintained. And top-notch administrative staff members track your costs and manage track your finances.

Our Dedicated Customer Service with Fixed Priced Contracts

After years of experience conducting all sorts of trials, the CROfessionals team has
come to understand that clinical research is never easy and certainly not always
predictable. That's why our "one study - one voice" approach to project management,
coupled with round-the-clock customer service is critical to your
research success.

We assign a dedicated and experienced project manager (along with a "stand in") to
your study, who becomes both an extension of your team, and your central point of
contact for budget and contract information, regulatory and IRB/EC/REB/IBC submissions, and general
troubleshooting, should there be a problem.

Your project manager oversees the CROfessionals project team of clinical,
regulatory, and quality assurance specialists, who are all committed to providing you
with whatever it takes, whenever you need us - regardless of how difficult or
complicated your project may be.

CROfessionals prides itself on the "fixed price approach," which eliminates the need
for hourly billing and allows your study team to focus on managing the trial, rather than
worrying about the budget. We are also careful to ensure that your trial runs smoothly
without multiple "out-of-scope" changes.

Our Focus on Training

CROfessionals provides a rigorous and structured professional development program
for its employees, using state-of-the-art learning technologies and teaching methods.
In fact, we are so serious about our continuing education that we have added a separate
training function.

This program runs the gamut from specific disease states, therapeutic options, and
the specialty products we develop to good clinical practice, regulatory standards, and
customer service. In addition to our internal workshops, we furnish our monitors and
project managers with continuing education opportunities through and/or memberships
in such industry groups as DIA, SOCRA, SQA, RAPS, ACRP, and PPTA.

We also conduct site training, as and whenever needed, along with protocol
"refresher" courses for our study teams.
