# Clinical Expert Services and Flexible Resourcing

Functional service provision and flexible resourcing for clinical operations

Add clinical research professionals to your team, in the countries where you need them. You manage the study. We fill the gap.

We work with medical device, IVD, pharma, biotech and hospital sponsors.

## What are clinical expert services and flexible resourcing?

We supply **clinical research professionals** for short-term and long-term needs, across every therapeutic area and every industry we serve.

Our people work inside your team, under your SOPs. We support start-ups, growing biotech, established pharma, medical device companies and hospitals.

## When teams use flexible resourcing

### You lack coverage in a country

Your project managers sit in-house. Your trial runs across Europe. You have no monitor in Poland, Spain or France.

### Someone leaves, the study continues

Maternity leave. Long-term illness. A resignation mid-study. Permanent recruitment takes months. Your trial does not pause.

### Your trial grows faster than your headcount

Site numbers rise. Headcount approval lags. Add capacity without a permanent hire.

## Our process

No two clinical studies are the same, so we take the time to understand your exact needs.

### 1. Understand & match

Brief intake conversation to understand unique needs and match with the right professional.

### 2. Review & discuss

Sharing tailored profiles and facilitating conversations with potential candidates.

### 3. Finalize & execute

Initiating the contract process quickly once a candidate is selected.

## Three ways to work with us

From one professional to a full study. Start anywhere on the scale.

| | Flexible resourcing | Functional service provision (FSP) | Full study outsourcing

| What you contract | One professional, or a few | A function, or part of one, such as monitoring in selected countries | The complete study

| Who manages delivery | Your team | QbD, against agreed scope | QbD

| How it works day to day | Our professionals work inside your team, under your processes and systems | We cover the scope you do not, alongside your own people | We run the trial and report to you

| Typical commitment | Short, extendable | Longer term, scope-based | Project duration

| Start here when | You have specific gaps to fill | You cover some countries or functions, not all | You have no in-house clinical team

Sponsor responsibility stays with you in all three models.

Most clients start with one person. Some grow into a wider programme. If you need a partner to run the whole trial, see our [clinical CRO services](https://qbdgroup.com/en/services/clinical-solutions).
