ICP Firefly of Australia Selects Online Provantis Preclinical System
Sydney-Based CRO to Begin Using Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Model To Access Provantis Completely over the Internet
CONSHOHOCKEN, PA - (BUSINESS WIRE) - June 20, 2008 - - Instem, a leading provider of early drug development solutions, announced today that ICP Firefly of Sydney, Australia has chosen the Provantis™ solution to increase the speed and quality of their services.
Using Provantis™ as an all-inclusive subscription, ICP Firefly will reduce and in many instances eliminate manual processes while responding to clients more quickly, especially in the area of reporting.
ICP Firefly is an independent contract research laboratory providing services benefiting the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. Operating for more than twelve years, their mission is to help their clients more quickly and cost effectively bring new discoveries to market.
After completing a thorough operational analysis, ICP Firefly determined that the Provantis™ preclinical solution would improve process control while eliminating many steps in the data capture and handling aspects of the studies they perform. ICP Firefly can now increase study throughput and deliver an even higher quality product to their customers.
“As the first Australian facility to combine GLP and ISO9000 quality management systems, we see the purchase of Provantis™ as a clear demonstration of our ongoing commitment to quality,” comments Edmund Ho, Manager at ICP Firefly. “We know ICP Firefly customers will be pleased and quickly benefit from our choice to deploy Provantis™.”
Previously referred to as “hosting”, today’s SaaS model offers simpler, more cost-effective ways to provide software functionality, maintenance, and support with GLP compliancy over the Internet.
Companies embracing the SaaS approach immediately reduce IT complexity, allowing them to focus on their research, not on their enabling technologies.
Provantis™ is a modern, fully integrated software system for organizations of all sizes engaged in non-clinical evaluation studies. The solution suite orchestrates every facet of preclinical drug safety assessment from initial compound receipt through to electronic regulatory submission. Provantis streamlines processes and workflows with straightforward, intuitive functionality for simple and complex studies within a GLP or non-GLP environment.
