e-Clinical’s technology governance is a tailored methodology comprised of principles and associated processes that ensure business value and regulatory compliance for investments in software systems that support the drug development process.  It’s not only about identifying the appropriate systems and best vendors, but also about ensuring the technology is implemented in a suitable fashion which meets both business and regulatory requirements and continues to add value and remain compliant post implementation.   Our technology governance model begins with the drivers for technology acquisition (e.g. – business cases), and moves through requirements development, technology identification and selection, implementation and validation, and ongoing support.  Additional governance methodology aspects extend into financial planning, executive oversight, and IT involvement.  Our objective is to guarantee tight integration of technology into the business such that the technology is a seamless component within the business operational structure.  In the end, we ensure that any applied governance model is customized to support your organization’s specific needs.
