Productized, project-based, scoped to the seam.
Every engagement stays on the integration layer between RTSM and EDC. I review, test, and de-risk the connection — I don't implement or configure the platforms themselves. Most clients start small with the DTS Pre-UAT Audit, then grow the relationship as trust builds.
From a one-week audit to an ongoing retainer.
Six focused engagements. Pick the one that matches where your study is — or start with the audit and let it tell you which you need next.
DTS Pre-UAT Audit
An independent pre-UAT review of your Data Transfer Specification for completeness, mapping accuracy, error handling, and regulatory readiness. A low-risk way to surface integration issues while they're still cheap to fix — before they reach UAT and start moving your go-live date.
DTS Deep Review + UAT Support
A line-by-line specification review plus UAT test-script support — independent QA on a vendor-built integration. Covers field mapping, transfer triggers, formats, and error handling, so the spec you sign off on is the spec that actually behaves at UAT.
UAT Planning & Test Strategy
An integration-specific test plan, script development, defect-triage support, and a go-live readiness assessment — built to catch what vendor self-UAT tends to miss. The difference between "we ran the scripts" and "we tested the scenarios that actually break."
Mid-Study Integration Change Support
Assessment and remediation when a protocol amendment changes the integration mid-study — the scenario vendors support least. I map what the amendment touches, flag the fields the EDC currently treats as read-only, and get ahead of the reconciliation problem before it becomes one.
Integration Troubleshooting
Root-cause analysis for an active integration failure. I diagnose the break, coordinate the fix across vendors, and deliver a remediation plan you can act on — instead of waiting out a stalemate over whose side owns the defect.
Monthly Retainer
Ongoing integration support across a portfolio of studies — the steady hand once you have three or more active trials. Predictable access to vendor-side depth without spinning up a new SOW every time a question surfaces.
Fixed fees, not hours.
Project-based pricing gives you cost certainty and rewards expertise over time tracked. Every engagement is scoped and quoted on the discovery call — so the number reflects your study, not a rate card guess.
Priced by complexity
Fees scale with study design, number of integration touchpoints, platform combination, and data-transfer volume — and land as a fraction of what a vendor charges to build the integration.
50% / 50%, Net 30
Half at SOW execution, the balance on delivery, on Net 30 terms. A clear SOW with explicit out-of-scope items and a change-order process keeps fixed-fee work fixed.
Start small
The DTS Pre-UAT Audit is an easy first step. Many engagements grow from there — audit to deep review to UAT to retainer — as the relationship proves itself.
Want the numbers? They're best discussed against your actual study. Book a 30-minute discovery call and you'll leave with a clear sense of scope and fee.
Five steps, start to finish.
Discovery
A free 30-minute call to understand your integration challenge, platform combination, and study timeline.
Scoping
Deliverables, timeline, and a fixed fee, defined clearly. SOW delivered for signature — typically within 48 hours.
Kickoff
Alignment with your data management, CRO, and vendor teams. Confirm document access and stakeholder contacts.
Execution
The work gets delivered. Weekly status updates. Issues raised early, while there's still time to act on them.
Close
Final deliverables reviewed and accepted. A debrief call, and a look at any ongoing needs.
Not sure which engagement fits?
That's exactly what the discovery call is for. Bring your study; leave with a clear recommendation and a fixed-fee scope.
