Version 2025 has been released!!! This version includes updates based on ICH E6(R3) Good Clinical Practice.    eSRA has been used globally since 2016!!

The eClinical Forum offers 2 absolutely free system assessment forms that consist of regulatory-based questions for evaluating the suitability of an investigator site system to provide data/records for clinical trials.Both forms are part of the eSRA Handbook which provides guidance to sites on how to complete the forms.  We request that Sponsors and CROs do not separate the forms from the handbook. Sites may separate the forms from the handbook after completion such that they are only sharing and storing the completed forms.

  • Form/S for e-Source Systems (e.g. Electronic Health Record Systems (EHRs))
  • Form/F for e-Investigator Site File Systems
  • A Japanese translation of eSRA V2025

eSRA materials are updated annually and released at the end of Q1. To be notified of future releases and/or to provide feedback to the team, please send an email to eSRA@eClinicalForum.org.  Your email address will not be used for purposes other than to inform you of updates to eCF Site System Assessments.

Does the eClinical Forum keep a list of sites that have completed eCF Site Assessments?

Due to privacy laws in different countries, we do not keep such a list, however sponsors can keep a list of eSRAs they have received.We encourage sites to store their completed assessments in a central location (such as their IT dept) so that other groups within the same organisation / using the same computer system, can use the previously completed assessment as a starting point.
