Capabilities or Enhancement Plans

Centralize

  • Data structure should be centralized and well partitioned.
  • Syncoset Core Framework should be web based and deployable on cloud environment.
  • Centralize Role based user management.
  • Logical separation of physical, logical and business application layers, conducive to add-ons and rapid business requirement changes.
  • Web integration layer offers branding, security, application bundling and user reporting enhancements.

Framework

  • Syncoset Core Framework should be developed as a Framework.
  • Every individual module deploy or install over the Syncoset Core Framework framework.
  • All 3rd Party and BIOCLINICA Integration management through framework.
  • Every individual module (SMART, Study Coordinator, etc.,) should be exchange data through WebAPI only.
  • Extensible DQ framework to accommodate additional client specific business rules.

Reporting

  • Powerful web-based analytics and reporting process that allow drill down into specific business need.
  • Need to develop Business Intelligence as independent module.
  • Under BI need to develop OLAP (Online Analytical Processing).
  • Data Archiving is an important part to get maximum performance and reduce the size of data.
  • ETL data driven mapping process that allow refreshing of data at required time interval.

Near Term product evolution

  • We can design separate iPad version for Study Coordinator.
  • iPhone or Android version for Patient Access.
  • Data Archiving or OLAP Development.
    • Data Archiving specially help in removing inactive data from database for improving performance of the system.
    • OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) help to performs multidimensional analysis of business.

Long Term product evolution

  • CRM (Customer Relationship Management) for Patient recruitment and Medici Client management very much helpful.
  • We can develop an FAQ for supporting Knowledge Management
  • Design and Develop Mobile App for Trainee to get knowledge about over all processes and get status updates about application request
  • Trainee get training schedule updates and instructor information
  • Implementation of Chatbots for Trainee or other applicants
  • Also we can design drugs information portal or handy iPAD or iPhone application through which Medici Client like (Pfizer, Abbott) can publish drug related information to Doctors or Site Managers directly. It should be a replacement of MR (Medical Representatives)
    • Get your message to more physicians
      • Rural physicians can now get your messaging
      • Physicians can also easily request for samples
    • Basically entire solution is very much cost effective then sending Medical Representative (MR) to every individual physicians
