In clinical trials, where contracts span years, countries, and thousands of invoices, that gap is where millions in value get lost. PRGX's Allan B. (Sr Manager, Audit Operations) outlines the 5 best practices for getting it right: 1️⃣ Get the language right: Contracts succeed or fail on clarity. Ambiguous wording leads to billing errors and misaligned expectations across sites and CROs. 2️⃣ Align all parties on terms: Define financial mechanics like markups, pass-throughs, and milestone payments clearly. Use examples to eliminate ambiguity. 3️⃣ Ensure accountability: Store agreements centrally. Too often, contracts and amendments can't be found when they're needed most. 4️⃣ Embed governance: Schedule regular reviews and track SLAs/KPIs. For critical CRO relationships, governance isn't optional. 5️⃣ Monitor continuously: Compliance isn't a one-off. Proactive engagement strengthens CRO partnerships while maintaining transparency throughout the trial lifecycle. These practices are at the heart of what PRGX calls Contract Optimization — applying lessons learned to build stronger, clearer agreements going forward. 📥 Download the full eBook: https://lnkd.in/gZivaU5P #ClinicalTrials #ContractCompliance #Pharma #Biotech #SupplierContracts #ContractManagement #PRGX
