A research pack for clinical operations teams deciding which trial operations investments to fund. It turns site capacity, recruitment and study-requirement assumptions into a traceable, gated business case. Every planning value is marked as observed evidence or as a hypothesis still to be tested.
What this research pack covers
It offers a simple driver model linking site activation, enrollment throughput and operating cost. An evidence hierarchy and grading scale feed a research-priority score. Decision rules separate cash, capacity and time value. Execution, governance and measurement tables come with named roles. A fully synthetic worked case shows the method end to end, with a failure case, an alternate scenario and a practice exercise. Editable tools cover the assumption register, source log, research questions, challenge worksheet, option worksheet and review record.
