In today’s competitive clinical research landscape, clinical trial site management plays a pivotal role in determining the success of a study. Sponsors and Contract Research Organizations (CROs) are under increasing pressure to meet regulatory demands, reduce timelines, and ensure data quality—all while maintaining ethical and patient-centered practices.

At South Florida Clinical Research Institute (SFCRI), our site management capabilities are built to deliver results. With over 35 years of combined research experience, bilingual staff, and state-of-the-art facilities, we provide sponsors with the reliability and expertise they need to execute complex studies effectively.

Key Elements of High-Quality Site Management

Successful clinical trial site management hinges on multiple operational pillars:

  • Timely recruitment and retention of qualified participants
  • Strict protocol adherence to maintain study integrity
  • Accurate, real-time data entry into sponsor or CRO platforms
  • Full compliance with FDA, ICH, and GCP standards

Each of these factors influences regulatory success, data reliability, and overall trial timelines. SFCRI brings these elements to life with a highly trained, experienced team committed to precision, quality, and responsiveness.

SFCRI’s Approach to Clinical Trial Site Management

Our Florida-based clinical research site operates with a focus on both scientific excellence and compassionate patient care. We provide:

  • Pre-screening and full informed consent processes conducted by seasoned Clinical Research Coordinators (CRCs)
  • Thorough clinical evaluations and eligibility assessments
  • Scheduling systems designed to streamline participant visits
  • Transparent communication with sponsors, CROs, and monitors

Our Principal Investigators and clinical staff undergo regular training in Good Clinical Practice (GCP), protocol-specific procedures, and electronic data capture (EDC) systems. We treat each study as a collaborative partnership with sponsors and CROs, focusing on shared milestones and regulatory success.

Infrastructure That Supports Performance

SFCRI’s infrastructure has been purpose-built to support complex trials across multiple therapeutic areas, including women’s health, endocrinology, cardiology, and infectious diseases. Our facilities feature:

  • Dedicated monitor’s office and conference space for sponsor meetings and protocol discussions
  • Private consent room to ensure HIPAA-compliant patient interactions
  • Two fully equipped exam rooms with advanced diagnostic equipment
  • An on-site lab, supporting sample collection and handling protocols
  • Secure medication storage, including a double-locked drug cabinet and controlled temperature freezers (-20°C and -86°C)
  • Reliable access to dry ice and shipping services (FedEx, UPS, Marken, DSL)

This advanced clinical trial infrastructure helps minimize protocol deviations, maintain chain-of-custody requirements, and support complex inclusion/exclusion criteria. Whether the trial is Phase I or Phase III, our site is optimized for smooth execution.

Data Integrity and Regulatory Readiness

In clinical trials, data integrity and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable. At SFCRI, we have designed our site workflows to support:

  • Rapid query turnaround through EDC platforms used by top CROs and sponsors
  • Real-time source data verification (SDV) during site monitoring visits
  • Detailed documentation logs, case report form (CRF) accuracy, and audit trail management
  • Internal quality assurance (QA) procedures to ensure ongoing inspection readiness

Our team adheres to FDA guidelines, ICH-GCP standards, and study-specific SOPs. We understand that regulatory agencies are increasingly focused on site-level compliance, and we make sure our data meets the highest expectations.
