Cloud Procurement offers a new interface defining approval workflow for Requisitions, Purchase Documents (Order, Blanket, Contract) and Supplier Management. Approval rules are managed in a user friendly interface that integrates back-end Business Process Management (BPM) while keeping a logical and complete setup in front of the user. While relatively simple to define rules in Approval […]

Here is something I’m working on at Perficient to make installing/upgrading, configuring, and deploying IBM FileNet P8 more efficient. It even creates a Domain, and Object Store. All using Ansible. If your organization is looking to implement something like this in your environment, give Perficient a call. We’ll be happy to assist.    For […]

Perficient’s Life Sciences practice regularly monitors the software release notes for several Oracle Health Sciences applications, including: Argus Safety Oracle Clinical/Remote Data Capture (OC/RDC) Thesaurus Management System (TMS) Generally speaking, we review release notes at the beginning of each month for the previous month. On occasion, there are no new releases and, therefore, nothing to review; however, […]

Previously, I discussed life science subject screening and how robotic process automation can assist. This next installment of the series dives into robotic process automation (RPA) fixing mistakes in clinical data entry. Dirty clinical data is one of the most costly aspects of clinical trials. Not only does the review and clean-up slow down time […]

Data ethics and security have been around a long time – as long as data. Constantly evolving. But, continued tech advancement has made a profound impact. So, data security and data ethics is more important than ever. 1. Magnified Relevance Tech has enabled an exponential increase of data. We know this. The more data, the […]

What does it take to create a lean, mean project machine? Many have wrestled with this in the past. How do you get your teams to perform at optimal levels? SEMPERFI Support don’t smother, Empower and trust, Motivate , Put forth – communicate, Energize, Release – deliver, Fail fast, Iterate   Turns out, Marine Seal […]

The evolution of expressing our machine instruction. Let’s get there together. Machine Instruction 1.0 In the past, we taught our computers what to do by expressing our desires with exact instruction. Classic computer programming that listed step by step instructions. We taught our machines how to behave. Arguably, even legacy artificial intelligence worked this way. Of course, this way of directing […]

My last blog discussed how AI assists to create human-computer systems. This next blog in the series analyzes clinical data review platforms. While machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) functionalities are not currently available in today’s clinical data review platforms (CDRP’s), we know they offer tremendous benefits to the clinical data review and […]

On Tuesday, October 29, at HLTH, I’ll be leading a workshop in Adobe’s booth on Delivering Omnichannel Experiences in Healthcare. I’ll show how healthcare providers and payers are converting prospects to patients and members using voice assistants with Adobe Experience Cloud.

My last blog analyzed site monitoring, and how robotic process automation can enhance it. My next blog discusses life science subject screening and how robotic process automation (RPA) can assist. Even when sites are able to recruit a large pool of potential subjects, sponsors and CROs see far too many subjects who fail to pass […]

Previously I discussed how life sciences companies can establish better relationships with patients. This blog analyses developing a strategic plan and how to get started. When it comes to managing these relationships, the bottom line is that there are some dramatic shifts taking place in healthcare, and life sciences companies need to understand, harness, and […]

Previously, I discussed artificial intelligence (AI) enhancing clinical data review processes. This blog discusses how AI assists to create a human-computer system. Humans and machines each have their own strengths. On the one hand, machines are good at processing and analyzing large volumes of data with high speed and accuracy. On the other hand, humans […]
