Engagement Models

Two Ways to
Work Together

Choose the delivery model that fits your timeline, budget, and internal capacity. Both approaches deliver the same expertise—just different ways of working.

Staff Augmentation

I join your team

I embed with your team as a contractor to execute work using your existing tools, processes, and governance frameworks. You get specialized expertise without the overhead of hiring full-time staff.

Work with Your Tools

Use your Medidata, Veeva, Oracle, or internal platforms

Follow Your Processes

Integrate with your SOPs, workflows, and governance

Flexible Duration

Short-term projects (2-4 weeks) or long-term contracts (6-12+ months)

Direct Team Collaboration

Daily standups, Slack/Teams access, full team integration

Timeline

2 weeks - 12+ months

Pricing

Hourly or weekly rates (C2C or W2)

Solution Delivery

I deliver the complete solution

I deliver a complete, turnkey solution with all documentation, training materials, and handover included. You get a finished product ready to implement—no need to manage the work or provide tools.

Turnkey Deliverables

Complete packages: RBQM plans, dashboards, validation docs

Fixed Scope & Pricing

Clear deliverables, predictable costs, no surprises

Minimal Client Involvement

Kickoff meeting, mid-point review, final handover

Training & Documentation

User guides, SOPs, training sessions included

Timeline

2-8 weeks (depending on scope)

Pricing

Fixed project fee (quoted upfront)

Client Journey

How We Work Together

Discovery Call

30 minutes

We discuss your trial's RBQM needs, current challenges, and goals to determine if there's a fit.

Proposal & Scoping

1-2 weeks

Kickoff & Onboarding

Week 1

Meet the team, align on communication, access systems, and establish success metrics.

Execution & Delivery

Varies by scope

We execute the agreed scope with regular check-ins, progress reports, and milestone reviews.

Handoff & Support

Final phase

Knowledge transfer, documentation, training, and optional ongoing support arrangements.

Which Model is Right for You?

Choose Staff Augmentation If:

You need someone to work within your existing Medidata, Veeva, or Oracle environment
You have a temporary capacity gap or need specialized expertise for 2-12+ months
You want someone embedded with your team for daily collaboration
You prefer hourly/weekly billing with flexible scope

Choose Solution Delivery If:

You need a complete RBQM plan, dashboard, or validation package delivered turnkey
You want predictable pricing with a fixed project fee
You don't have internal tools or want a custom solution built for you
You prefer minimal involvement (just kickoff, review, and handover meetings)

Still Not Sure Which Approach Fits?
