Local Studies Standard Operating Procedure

The Local Studies Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) can be used for the documentation of the process involved in the intake and management of studies entering through a Clinical Research Network (CRN) Front Door. From the inception of a request to the final close-out of the project, the document provides a detailed account of each stage, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the workflow. This template can also be used for other SOP’s.
