We encountered a strange issue in our customer’s Oracle CTMS application. Our team had configured a customer’s Oracle Siebel CTMS application based on their specific business requirements, including the need for new views for end-users. The application was working fine for years without any issues until the customer reported that certain views in the application […]

This afternoon at the DIA Pharmacovigilance and Risk Management Strategies Conference in Washington, D.C, we are digging down into one of the cruxes of surveillance in pharmacovigilance (PV); drug-induced live injury (DILI). Vicky and I attended a panel consisting of hepatic experts sharing information on the latest drug-related DILI and the best way to detect […]

Today marks the beginning of the DIA Pharmacovigilance and Risk Management Strategies Conference in Washington, D.C., and the aura around the event is incredible. Industry speakers, short courses, hot topics, networking, education, and round-table discussions. All dedicated to enhancing the foundation for strong strategic planning and practical decision-making in pharmacovigilance programs. The Perficient team is […]

New codes of practice and guidelines in the EU and US hold marketing authorization holders (MAH) to higher standards for the surveillance of adverse event (AE) and product quality complaint (PQC) data. While good pharmacovigilance (PV) and safety surveillance is a required practice, companies agree that having more and better insight into their data can […]

Is your Oracle Siebel CTMS Application slow? Siebel message broadcasting could be the reason! The Siebel message broadcasting feature is typically used by application system administrators to send important information to application end users about system downtime and system availability. In recent Open UI versions of Siebel, this notification appears at the top right corner […]

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, […]

The pain points and the reality of safety surveillance within a sound risk management program are daunting. The expanded pharmacovigilance analytics (PV) landscape, geography, product type, and most importantly, regulatory changes are important considerations. Like the plague, risk management and drug surveillance panic spread quickly. How to keep up and have a meaningful understanding of […]

Previously, I examined how robotic process automation (RPA) can improve document compliance. The final installment of this series explains how to get started with RPA. The opportunities to use robotic process automation are almost limitless. The examples presented in this guide are just a few areas in which RPA can be used in life sciences […]

Previously, I dove into how artificial intelligence helps review, and provide statistical analysis to data. The final blog of this series outlines how to be successful with an artificial intelligence implementation. Setting initial expectations and not promising a magic bullet is a key factor in determining the success of an initiative that focuses on deploying […]

Previously, I explained how robotic process automation can assist updating outdated contact details. This blog examines how robotic process automation (RPA) can improve document compliance. Keeping sites in compliance with their required documentation is an ongoing battle for every sponsor and CRO. Considering the volume of documentation involved in a clinical trial, it is no […]

My last installment explained how artificial intelligence (AI) assists search, confidence scores, and data reviews. This blog dives into how artificial intelligence helps review plans, provide statistical analysis to data, and robotic process automation. Review Plans Prior to starting data review, each team has its own review plan. The data review team has a data […]
