Study startup task orchestration from feasibility through site activation.
The Startup Workflow module orchestrates the complex study startup process from feasibility assessment through country regulatory submissions, site selection, contract negotiation, IRB approvals, and site activation. It provides a structured startup checklist with parallel and sequential tasks, dependency management, and critical path tracking to minimize time-to-activation.
Explore the module's workflow through interactive interface mockups showing each step of the process.
