Planning Suite

IQVIA's Planning Suite is a clinical trial planning platform designed for life sciences organizations involved in clinical research and development. It supports the full range of pre-trial and trial design activities, from protocol evaluation and enrollment modeling to site selection and investigator management, by drawing on multiple data sources and analytical capabilities.

The suite is positioned as part of IQVIA's broader Orchestrated Clinical Trials offering, targeting sponsors and CROs who need to reduce operational risk, improve study design decisions, and streamline the processes that precede and support trial execution.

Core Capabilities

• Predicts operational execution to support planning decisions before a trial begins
• Leverages multiple data sources to evaluate protocol design and identify potential issues early
• Models and predicts patient enrollment to support realistic timeline planning
• Reduces protocol design complexity by surfacing relevant data and analytical insights
• Identifies gaps in existing data sources that may affect study feasibility or design
• Optimizes site selection based on data-driven assessments of site performance and patient availability

Investigator and Site Management

• Supports improvement of the investigator experience throughout the planning and setup process
• Streamlines the Confidential Disclosure Agreement (CDA) process to reduce administrative burden and accelerate site engagement
• Assists in identifying and evaluating potential investigator sites prior to trial initiation

Protocol and Feasibility Analysis

• Evaluates protocol design against available data to highlight areas of complexity or risk
• Provides modeling tools to forecast enrollment rates and patient availability across geographies
• Helps identify where existing data sources are insufficient, enabling teams to address gaps before study start

Planning Suite is part of IQVIA's clinical technology portfolio, which also includes Site Suite, Patient Engagement Suite, and Clinical Trial Financial Suite, among other products. It is intended to integrate within the broader IQVIA Orchestrated Clinical Trials ecosystem, connecting planning activities with downstream trial execution and data management functions.
