Projects

FICS is a web-based, end-to-end platform designed to streamline clinical trials in life science domain, making them faster, easier, and more quality.

FICS consists of the following modules:

1. CTMS (Clinical Trial Management System)

Designed for sponsors and CROs, this application streamlines administrative tasks across the Study Startup, Conduct, and Closeout phases of clinical trials. The CTMS solution offers unified access to study data, allowing teams to manage multiple trials seamlessly. It also integrates with EDC for efficient patient data collection.

2. Trial Source Data Application(TSDA)

The TSDA application is designed for clinical trial sites (hospitals/clinic facilities), enabling site users to perform and manage site-specific tasks related to clinical trials efficiently.

3. eTMF electronic Trial Master File

eTMF Enables sponsors to upload, manage, and retrieve clinical trial documents at study, country, and site levels, ensuring proper record collection throughout the trial lifecycle.
