In early October, Phlexglobal was honored to welcome industry TMF professionals from over thirty pharmaceutical companies and Contract Research Organizations to the 2019 U.S. TMF World Forum in Philadelphia. For two days we discussed many of the challenges facing companies on their journey to the TMF Health Zone, a balanced approach to Trial Master File management that takes people, processes, and technology into account while addressing Quality, Completeness, and Timeliness.
The goal of the event was to share practical knowledge and best practices on how to improve TMF management, and 100% of attendees said the event met or exceeded their expectations and that their TMF skills, knowledge, and understanding had been enhanced.
With our United Kingdom TMF World Forum just around the corner, we'd like to share some of the highlights and feedback from attendees.
