Full-Service CRO

A full-service Contract Research Organization (CRO) supports sponsors across the planning, execution, and oversight of clinical trials. Full-service CRO models integrate clinical operations, data management, biostatistics, and regulatory support to enable consistent trial execution.

Organizations engage full-service CROs to centralize accountability, reduce operational complexity, and maintain oversight across multi-site studies. Clear governance and communication structures are critical to ensuring alignment between sponsors and CRO teams.

Effective CRO engagement supports predictable timelines, data quality, and inspection readiness throughout the clinical lifecycle.

Full-service CRO activities commonly include:

• Clinical trial planning and startup

• Site identification and monitoring

• Data management and analysis

• Regulatory and quality coordination

• Study closeout and reporting
