Ensure confidence in your trial quality and data integrity
As a sponsor, you are responsible for the integrity of the data generated by your vendors, as well as for the rights, safety, and protection of human subjects. That’s why regulatory agencies are increasingly focused on how sponsors successfully oversee the activities and ensure the quality of their CRO’s work.
Beaufort’s Clinical Monitoring Oversight provides sponsors with a layer of added security and oversight by objectively evaluating and assessing the performance, quality, and compliance of all site activities and site staff. Our local oversight monitors conduct on-site visits to collect actionable data designed to mitigate problems quickly, ensure the integrity of all data, and help keep your trial on time and on budget. Beaufort’s proven processes help identify and eliminate non-conformances that can jeopardize trial data or subject projection.
Our primary purpose is to provide sponsors with confidence, clarity, and consistency across all clinical activity and ensure the acceptability of your trial for regulatory submission.

Our Clinical Monitoring Oversight Process
Clinical Monitoring Oversight Plan
Beaufort develops a comprehensive Monitoring Plan that documents the key methodologies for evaluation and associated timelines for all activities. Risk assessment and mitigation strategies are key components of the Monitoring Plan.
Strategic Site Selection
Our rigorous site selection process is based on quantifiable analyses of key criteria including data quality, enrollment rates, CRA issues, and geographic dispersion. Strategic and targeted site selection is critical to maximize trial performance.
On-site Performance Evaluation
Our team of assessors perform on-site visits to observe, critically evaluate, and provide unbiased feedback on CRO/CRA processes and site activities. We recommend immediate on-site CAPA when necessary as we assess “metrics that matter” including PI oversight, protocol adherence, and subject protection.
Real-time Metrics and Analysis
We provide a comprehensive analysis of high-risk issues utilizing quality by design (QbD) concepts and ICH principles of risk management. Data from numerous assessment tools (including immediate reporting after each site visit) are integrated into a data warehouse so the sponsor can view customized data queries and trending analyses in real time using our online dashboard tool.
End-of-Trial Reporting and Inspection Readiness
Beaufort’s final report is a highly-detailed independent assessment of global trial conduct, and demonstrates to regulatory agencies that you conducted proper oversight of your CRO’s activities. This reporting ensures our clients are well-prepared for regulatory inspections.
