 Innovative Integrated Solutions Include:
- Clinical Master Services Provider (CMSP)
RPS is the only company in the industry to offer a strategically scalable CMSP solution. The CMSP
solution is designed to merge clinical operations expertise, management, infrastructure, and
support of both organizations to create a cost-effective, integrated outsourced operating model.
The CMSP solution minimizes the resource spiking that occurs within development programs, thus
increasing resource utilization and significantly decreasing costs. This solution can include all of the
service offerings of RPS along with technology systems and international capabilities.
- Cross Functional Service Provider (CFSP) and Functional Service Provider (FSP)
RPS has the ability to integrate functional services in horizontal and vertical structures. This
provides Sponsors with the greatest flexibility in developing functional teams such as clinical
monitoring, data management, biostatistics, programming, medical writing or cross functional
teams combining multiple service areas. Our clinical expertise allows us to provide true clinical
management for each functional service area or across all functions.
- Satellite Office Operations
RPS has demonstrated operational excellence in establishing and managing satellite office
solutions. Solutions include a variety of service areas such as Data Management, SAS®
Programming, Biostatistics, Study Management and Medical Writing. With a satellite office
approach, RPS can utilize existing Client platforms or RPS platforms while integrating a dedicated
resource-based team that functions as a mirror image of the Client. The solution provides robust
technology, security, and verification of procedures to ensure a seamless connection into the
Client's systems and continuous operations throughout the project.
- Project Crisis Rescue
RPS has substantial experience in providing project crisis rescue services.
RPS can rapidly assemble a team and deploy a solution with unprecedented
speed. The team can consist of one functional area (for example, Clinical
Monitoring) or a number of functional areas (Clinical Monitoring, Data
Management, Biostatistics, Regulatory Affairs, Contract Administration,
Medical Writing and others). RPS has a proven track record in restoring
projects to their original timelines.
- Individual Consulting/Staff Augmentation
RPS has the largest search engines in the industry. This unique infrastructure
supports our ability to provide Clients with individual consultants to supplement
their internal project teams. These individual consultants are hired as
RPS employees, eliminating co-employment related issues. The Client has the
ability to hand-select the resources according to the therapeutic and disease
specific experience required. These resources can be on site at the Client's
facility, at RPS offices, or regionally based.
