At the end of 2007 Springborn, a Smithers Group company, was faced with a good
problem; it had achieved significant growth and had steady study back-log.
"In addition to expanding our staff and resources to manage our growth, we
realized that we could operate more efficiently by investing in technology,"
commented Susan Shepherd, Springborn's Director of Ecotoxicology. After
careful due diligence and pilot testing, Springborn chose to implement eStudy.
"Although the investment is significant, we strongly believe the invested
capital and time will add value to our customers. Our clients recognize the
value-add of the data back-up and security provided to them with eStudy hosted
at Cegedim Dendrite. With eStudy, reports that previously required 6-8 weeks
to generate can now be delivered in as little as 6-8 hours after study
completion," said Shepherd.
eStudy is an enterprise solution Springborn can implement throughout its
organization to manage multiple study types from protocol to report. With
eStudy, flexibility and control is placed in the hands of the design
scientist. eStudy guides study design scientists through a step-by-step
scientific research process to design their study, data collection templates,
queries, report templates, and report tables. An electronic laboratory
notebook (ELN) is dynamically created for each experiment identified within
the study. "eStudy will continually grow with Springborn, easily adapt to new
study-types and interface with 3rd party instruments and tools," stated Diana
Michelotti, Director of Marketing and Sales for iAdvantage.
