Speaking
Engagements

During the last
quarter,
Formedix spoke at two events:
In July, Mark
Wheeldon, CEO and Formedix CDISC Expert, spoke at the
CDISC Bay Area User
Group Meeting. The title of his presentation was
"ODM – The Operational Efficiency Model: Using ODM to Deliver Proven
Cost and Time Savings in Study Set-up".
This presentation, which is available here
from our website, gave an
overview on how Formedix clients have saved time and money in their
clinical trials through adoption and use of the CDISC ODM (Operational
Data Model) standard.
Mark demonstrated that CDISC ODM can be used to create libraries of
study content which can facilitate up to 80% re-use. This allowed
one of our clients to decrease their standards maintenance resources by
23% and gave them a return on investment in only 8 months. The
resulting study content library is available here. Another of
our clients achieved a 68% reduction in the time taken in
study design and specification through the use of the CDISC ODM
standard
in conjunction with Formedix Origin Study Modeller.
Also in July, Andy Chambers, Client Solutions Developer, spoke at the
CDISC ESUG (English Speaking User Group) meeting in
London.
Andy's presentation gave an overview of what Define.xml is and its
uses. He explained its purpose and gave some practical
examples on how it is used. Andy went on to describe the main
benefit of Define.xml as being its machine readability, which
facilitates multiple targets, automatic dataset validation, quality
assurance reports and automation of ETL load. The presentation is
available here
for download.
