Clinical Trials Dashboard for Pharmaceutical Companies
Purpose of Clinical Trials Dashboards Pharmaceutical companies use Drug Trial Dashboards to provide managers with essential actual and planning drug trial data in a format that is easy to consume. When used as part of good business practices in Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) and Clinical Trial departments, an organization can improve its drug trials and product strategies, and it can reduce the chances that there is lack of clarity in expenses and trial results.
