Project Management

Managing every facet and edge of a clinical trial requires diligence, expertise and the right tools. Our project managers and alliance managers are immersed in the daily operations of our laboratories. From the initial protocol review until project closure, every aspect is tracked, measured, analyzed and managed to consistently provide our clients with high quality results.

We equip our strong project management/data management teams with technology tools that have been aligned with value add project management principles specifically for managing global clinical trials. Through APOLLO CLPM and APOLLO: RDA™ Project leaders gain component and test level visibility into study progress. Combined with our team's experience and training, these tools maintain our industry leading project management services.

Unparalleled Project management
  • Local expertise and cultural understanding with global visibility and management.
  • APOLLO: Central Laboratory Protocol Management System - monitors and reports on every detail from kit design to specimen storage across all our global facilities, labs and instruments in a single system
  • Consistent methodologies and SOPs throughout the duration and geography of the clinical program.

Each project is assigned a project team composed of a Project Leader and Project Coordinator(s) in charge of the study set-up and monitoring. The Project Coordinators are in direct contact with the sites for all types of queries or specific requests.

Project Leaders are assigned to each study and act as the day to day project contact for our sponsor teams, CRO and site counterparts with the Alliance Manager acting as an expert advisory resource to the Project Leader and support teams.

The Alliance Manager has overall responsibility for ensuring efficient and consistent service while acting as a single point of contact for project status updates and issue escalation, effectively removing this responsibility from our BD team.

Alliance Managers are also responsible for identifying internal process improvement initiatives that best suit our working efficiencies as well as ensure clients are satisfied with our project execution. This can mean keeping abreast of technology changes, device offerings and changing industry gold standards.
