Enterprise Ready
Some of our more ambitious projects have been as part of a team at a fortune 500 company. We've been fortunate to work with team members acutely aware of what it takes to successfully translate ideas into a tangible solution. Click a link below for more information on some of the larger-scale projects we've led to success.
A global regulatory database repository
A web-based application developed for use by the
Regulatory Operations and Affairs department within
one of our pharmaceutical clients. The system is
required to provide access to the regulatory status
of our client’s products worldwide by tracking the
regulatory life cycle of a product from the time of
an estimated dossier dispatch or submission through
the time the product is approved and launched in a
market.
The objectives for the design of the
database were to provide a user friendly,
comprehensive, web-based application that enables
real-time access to a broad range of regulatory
information. Furthermore, the system needed to enable
data entry at various points throughout the
regulatory process and provide users with extensive
search and reporting capabilities. The system was
designed to be an internationally shared reference
tool for our client, which can be accessed anywhere
in the world provided the user has an account to the
system and access to the corporate intranet.
A validated chemistry, manufacturing and controls database (CMC dB),
Another web-based application developed for use by
the manufacturing divisions within one of our
pharmaceutical clients. The purpose of the CMC dB is
to maintain drug product and ingredient registration
or technical dossier information for our client’s
products so that the site compliance personnel may
verify this information at the manufacturing sites.
In addition, our client’s change control efforts are
supported by the system through provision of reliable
key registration information. Other initiatives such
as Supply chain consolidation efforts are facilitated
by registration information provided through the CMC
dB repository.
This project included the
development of a customized workflow engine for
tracking drug product status, assigning daily tasks
to system users, and sending change notifications to
users and management responsible for a product.
An information security management program
An application within one of our clients to define
and disseminate security standards information to
corporate employees and raise colleague awareness for
information protection. Work in this area included a
requirements definition, which provided conceptual
designs for a Business Continuity Planning/Disaster
Recovery Planning tool, an IT compliance review of
legal and regulatory requirements, development of an
information security audit checklist, and ensuring
compliance with Information Protection Guidelines
within each business unit of the organization.
A validated adverse events reporting application
This was developed for the Medical Services
department of one of our pharmaceutical clients. The
application includes approximately twenty reports
that derive data from two separate instances of an
adverse events management application, one based in
the United States and one in the United Kingdom.
Although adverse events data are available through an
adverse events management application, the inherent
querying capability of the application does not
provide the flexibility the client requires. The
objective of the reporting application, therefore, is
to provide role-based access to adverse events data
through a series of "canned" or pre-formatted
reports. These reports will support the specific
requirements of the Medical Services groups in the US
and the UK in terms of adverse events reporting to
their respective regulatory authorities, and will
provide head office in Japan with, for example,
metrics regarding turnaround time for adverse events
reporting.
A validated reporting and analysis solution
This was a project for the Pharmacovigilance
department at a world-wide leader in the
pharmaceutical industry. Avelient manages the
reporting and analysis team which is responsible for
the production of all aggregate safety reports (PSUR,
ASR, QSR, IND, NDA) as well as validated ad-hoc
reporting in support of the aggregates and other
health authority submissions. Avelient is responsible
for metrics reporting, work prioritization with
senior management, resource management and workload
balancing in this variable environment. The team
produces an average of 325 reports per month and
meets service level agreements 98% of the
time.
During this engagement, the client implemented
the Oracle Adverse Event Reporting System (AERS).
Avelient led the transition of aggregate reports from
the legacy system to AERS. This effort included
requirements gathering, business and technical
process definition, system configuration, piloting
the aggregate reports and training the user base.
Through these and other projects, we have a broad range of experience in several project tools, development tools and technologies. Our consultants have implemented solutions using a variety of technologies and associated tools, including Oracle, Java, .Net and others. We will work with you to define the appropriate technology to meet your business requirements and get your solution from its definition to production as quickly as possible.
Every Avelient solution follows an exhaustive Feasibility and Define phase to ensure we can pro-actively identify obstacles early and provide a clear picture of our interpretation of our customers’ vision. We feel this is the most important phase of the project plan and sets up a much more cost-effective Design and Development process.
