Signals Synergy

Signals Synergy™ is a collaboration platform by Revvity Signals designed to streamline and secure the working relationship between R&D sponsors and their external partners, including CROs, CDMOs, and academic labs. It replaces inefficient, error-prone workflows built around email and spreadsheets with structured, traceable processes that protect intellectual property, automate data exchange, and provide real-time visibility into outsourced research programs.

The solution extends the capabilities of Signals Notebook™ and Signals One™, enabling organisations to onboard partners quickly, exchange data securely, consolidate results automatically, and monitor outsourced R&D work from a single environment. It is trusted by companies worldwide and is purpose-built to address the full spectrum of sponsor–CRO collaboration challenges rather than focusing on only one or two pain points.

Core Problems Signals Synergy Solves

• Replaces email-based collaboration with structured, prioritised work orders that reduce miscommunication and rework.
• Simplifies the onboarding and off-boarding of CRO resources through automated setup and security controls.
• Enhances visibility into project stages using Kanban-like boards, enabling easy reprioritisation without constant email exchanges.
• Protects intellectual property by masking proprietary codes, properties, material IDs, and any data fields not required by the partner.
• Automates data standardisation so results are delivered in a consistent, analytics-ready format without manual reformatting.

Key Features and Capabilities

• Automated project setup: Start projects and onboard partners with automated setup and security configuration, reducing administrative overhead.
• Selective data sharing: Sponsors choose exactly which data fields a partner can see, masking all other information to protect sensitive IP.
• Work order management: CRO scientists receive clear, prioritised work orders with the required context and structured templates, enabling efficient study execution and faster delivery of compliant reports.
• Kanban-style tracking: Project leaders can monitor task progress and reprioritise work in real time without relying on back-and-forth email communication.
• Automatic data consolidation: Results from partners are integrated automatically, eliminating manual data formatting and reducing errors.
• Secure partner access: Sponsors share a secure URL with CROs, who join a dedicated space within the sponsor's system to collaborate seamlessly.

Security and Compliance

• Asset ring-fencing: Automated ring-fencing of CRO access by CRO organisation, CRO department, and individual collaboration, ensuring strict data separation.
• Distinct database access controls: CRO databases feature dedicated user types and granular access control settings.
• IP protection: Built-in masking of proprietary codes, properties, and material IDs ensures only necessary information is shared with external partners, increasing trust and compliance with organisational data protection policies.
