Executive summary

A diagnostic for clinical operations teams that grades the evidence behind current trial performance before money goes into start-up, site or recruitment investments.

What is inside

What this diagnostic covers

The asset covers a decision frame with explicit exclusions and an inputs table built around site capacity, recruitment assumptions and study requirements. It adds an A–D evidence hierarchy, a step-by-step method with formulas and scoring anchors, and an evidence clinic process. Governance gates, a risk register and KPI definitions are assigned to roles. A synthetic worked example, a failure case and a practice exercise follow, and the asset ends with four copyable tools: a questionnaire, an evidence inventory, a baseline worksheet and a challenge log.
