Perficient to Present on Successful Implementation of Siebel Clinical Trial Management System in the Oracle Cloud at Oracle Health Sciences Connect

April 3, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

Additional Perficient presentations will focus on artificial
intelligence (AI) and machine learning in clinical data management and
medical coding

ST. LOUIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Perficient,
Inc. (NASDAQ: PRFT) (“Perficient”), the leading digital
transformation consulting firm serving Global 2000® and other large
enterprise customers throughout North America, today announced it has
successfully implemented Oracle’s Siebel Clinical Trial Management
System (CTMS) in the Oracle Cloud for one of the world’s largest
pharmaceutical companies. The Siebel CTMS implementation, which is the
biggest to date in the Oracle Cloud, provides the infrastructure needed
to facilitate several hundred clinical trials each year and bring new
medicines to market faster.

With the increased complexity of clinical trial studies, and the push to
accelerate trial results, life sciences organizations need to modernize
their clinical and safety systems. Migrating applications to the cloud
helps standardize and optimize clinical study processes, shorten cycle
times, and support patient recruitment and participation.

The pharmaceutical company worked with Perficient’s seasoned clinical
trial operations solutions team to migrate from a homegrown, on-premises
system, to an enhanced Siebel CTMS cloud solution. The successful Siebel
CTMS implementation has enabled the company to efficiently manage and
monitor the operational aspects of more than 300 global studies. It has
experienced reduced clinical trial related costs, increased trial
management consistency, streamlined clinical trial management, and
improved clinical research productivity.

“Oracle’s Siebel CTMS is critical to the central management of clinical
trials,” said Mike Grossman, general manager, Life Sciences at
Perficient. “Our client is the largest company leveraging Siebel CTMS in
the Oracle Cloud, and we are thrilled to be the partner of choice. We’ve
delivered a cloud solution that contained complex integrations and
enhancements in a short amount of time, and we look forward to
demonstrating this innovative implementation during Oracle Health
Sciences Connect.”

The session will begin at 10:30 a.m. Eastern time, Wednesday, April 10,
