A successful protocol requires management of ancillary supplies to investigator site locations to ensure that trials progress on time and on budget. By ensuring that ancillary supplies are available at each investigator site before first patient in, trial launches occur without delay. Monitoring usage patterns throughout the trial and JIT supply ensures that shortages do not occur and eliminates bottlenecks in the supply chain. Lastly, building a process for site closure after last patient out ensures that guidelines are followed and products are disposed of as necessary. Using one source throughout this process allows free information flows and creates the centralized management structure necessary to complete tasks throughout the supply chain. Ancillare has a specific focus on building supply guidelines and manages the global supply chain throughout the duration of the protocol.
