Managing and preventing risk is an integral part of clinical trial conduct in order to achieve high-quality data on time and on budget. However, industry data reveals that a large percentage of clinical trial budgets is allocated towards remediation, focused on fixing problems after they occur, rather than towards proactive activities to help predict and prevent costly errors. This audio conference showcases a complementary range of real-life examples of how to leverage sophisticated tools such as Failure Modes & Effects Analysis (FMEA) to proactively manage project-related risk.
However, in the project management arena, there is often a gap between the sophisticated tools and proactive approaches available to manage project-related risk, and the general level of understanding of how to deploy these tools.
Specifically addressing this issue, the audio conference aims to help close the gap by exploring a number of different ways to leverage theory into practice. Acknowledging the need for continuous mitigation of project-related risks, the speaker also demonstrates methods to overcome challenges that may occur mid-study, successfully absorbing and minimizing the impact to timelines and resources.
