The eClinical Forum is a global network of peers. It provides a non‐competitive environment for innovation, learning and collaboration in clinical research.
The eCF EDC Hosting Team has released the final White Paper documenting best practices for establishing controls and operational procedures that facilitate compliance with evolving regulatory expectations for Electronic Data Capture in Clinical Trials using Service Providers (e.g. EMA Reflection Paper and ICH GCP Addendum).

The concept of an investigator “zone of control” is described to assist the ongoing governance of data by respective sites.

The eCF proposal is not mutually exclusive of other methods of meeting regulatory expectations.
