Over the life of a study, well-qualified study sites can save time and money. PMI recognizes that identifying and assessing the most effective sites to meet the specific goals of your study is an initial step to study success.

At PMI, our experience enables the development of efficient methods to assess proposed study sites. We maintain a database of study sites - organized by medical specialty/therapeutic area – enabling us to rapidly identify prospective sites for your clinical trial based on your unique study objectives and needs.

By utilizing customized qualification questionnaires, we then match site-specific strengths to your study objectives. This includes gathering information on each site’s clinical experience, anticipated competing clinical research priorities, potential subject availability, facilities, and IRB/Ethics Committee requirements.

Qualification questionnaires are followed by a pre-study visit where we assess site personnel, facilities, equipment/instrumentation, potential subject availability, and project-specific subject recruitment strategies. Finally, our clients are provided with a report detailing our findings and suggestions. Once study sites are selected, PMI can facilitate site contract development and negotiation based on study protocol requirements and the project budget.

• Study site identification/assessment
