Flexible and integrated deliverables for kit design in China

Pre-labeled tubes and specimen collection kits

  • Collection flow charts
  • Visit and subject specific kits
  • Convenient for investigators

Kit conservation program

  • Identify opportunities for synergies across visits based on protocol review
  • Create kits that can be used across multiple visits
  • Reduces the number of different kit configurations by up to 30%

Kit-less options

  • Bulk supplies and label sets need less storage space
  • Great for fast enrolling studies
  • Less storage space, less waste, controlled costs

Regional kit-building facilities to provide redundancy and reduce shipping costs.
