Synergizing Data Strategy and RBQM in Data Management: A Collaborative Imperative
  • Session Type: Storytelling
  • Topics: RBQM as a Holistic Clinical Trial Approach

Overview
In the rapidly evolving landscape of data management, the emphasis on data strategy and Risk-Based Quality Management (RBQM) has become paramount. This session aims to explore the relationship between these two critical workstreams, emphasizing that neither can exist in isolation and be successful . We will delve into the following 3 key aspects:

1. Data Strategy for Fit-for-Purpose Data: The cornerstone of effective data strategy lies in ensuring that the data is not only fit for purpose but also consistent, reliable, and repeatable. This segment will explore how a well-crafted data strategy lays the foundation for high-quality data that meets specific business needs while maintaining integrity and reproducibility.

2. RBQM in Data Management: The focus here is on the application of RBQM principles in the realm of data management. RBQM demands data that is fit for purpose and consistent, allowing for a robust assessment of its reliability. We will discuss how RBQM frameworks guide the identification, evaluation, and mitigation of risks associated with data quality and integrity.

3. Interdependence and Collaboration: Highlighting the symbiotic relationship between data management and RBQM in data strategy area, this section will emphasize the necessity for strong collaboration between these domains. The interplay between creating a robust data strategy and implementing effective RBQM practices is crucial for the overall success of data management initiatives.

The whole session will be a series of short presentations covering all three above aspects. These presentations will include real-world testimonials and case studies, illustrating how the integration of data strategy and RBQM principles leads to enhanced data quality, improved decision-making, and operational efficiency, Attendees will leave with insights into how these workstreams can be effectively aligned to foster a more robust, efficient, and reliable data management ecosystem.
