We thoroughly review your study budgets and contracts with our clinical expertise to negotiate terms that benefit your site, investigators, and clinical staff. Our goal is to reduce liability where possible and establish shared accountability with necessary third parties, including Sponsors or CROs.*

Just like contract agreements with a Sponsor or CRO, we assist your site in negotiating vendor agreements required for using their services during your awarded study. If your site doesn’t have pre-negotiated rates with vendors, securing these agreements in advance is highly recommended, especially if you plan to work with them on multiple clinical trials.

We work to maximize contract value by analyzing the schedule of events, vendor usage, and your site’s time and effort. Our approach helps convert vendor costs into revenue while adhering to Fair Market Value (FMV). We assess annual site expenses to maintain proper overhead and include fringe benefits. By reviewing payment terms, we help improve upfront cash flow during startup and ensure steady income throughout the trial. Additionally, we implement strategic budgeting to reduce time spent managing passthrough costs.
