Peachtree selects Oracle Health Sciences to streamline Study Start-up and Monitoring.

Peachtree BioResearch Solutions has selected Oracle Health Sciences to help navigate this fast-paced world we live in. Oracle Health Sciences Cloud Services “Select” and “Activate” help our study start-up teams to quickly find the best sites for a study and aids in the process of bringing them onboard. The integration with the Siebel Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS) allows us to efficiently monitor and manage a site once it is selected.

Communication, transparency, and optimization are the name of the game and Oracle Cloud Services bring them all. Peachtree is excited to see what the future holds with Oracle alongside.

Peachtree Recognizes Women’s History Month

Being a woman-founded and owned company, Women’s History Month (March 2020) carries special significance for Peachtree BioResearch Solutions’ founders, Kristy Nichols and Sharon Hilton. Originating in 1981, initially as “Women’s History Week,” annual presidential proclamations recognize women contributions and specific achievements made through the course of history in a variety of fields.

Science fields, in general are male-dominated – especially at higher levels. “In forming Peachtree, we saw the opportunity to build a different kind of CRO, and provide an avenue for women to enter the clinical research arena,” stated Kristy Nichols, CEO. “When we began operations in 2009, we had two male employees out of 40 total,” said Sharon Hilton, Executive Vice President. “Today, with our significant expansion over the last 3 years, we remain predominately female with a balance at executive management and department heads.”

Having worked on the Sponsor side at a top-50 global pharmaceutical company as department heads, Nichols and Hilton knew first-hand the frequent frustrations managing CRO partnerships. “Inexperience, high CRO personnel turnover, and lack of proactive solutions were constant,” stated Nichols. “We knew if we were having these problems, how did smaller companies with smaller budgets get any expertise and attention? We committed to creating a CRO that resolved the shortcomings we had experienced.”

“We focused on building an organization with highly experienced people, and investing in providing the tools and organizational support for our staff to be successful in exceeding client expectations,” said Hilton. “To combat turnover, common in the CRO industry, we encourage a work environment that balances work-live-play, and is attractive for employees to stay long-term.”

Entering its 12th year of operation, Peachtree stays true to its foundation – experience and solutions.

Peachtree/CenExel: Clinical Research Amidst COVID-19

We are all in this together. In the spirit of community and collaboration during this pandemic, Peachtree and CenExel are jointly holding multiple roundtable discussions over the next few weeks to openly discuss the recent challenges in clinical research and related solutions being implemented. Challenges range from extensive conversations and research conducted across our sites, affiliates, vendors, patients, recent health authority guidance including our sponsors. Featured topics include all activities of clinical development including study start-up, conduct and closeout. This is a difficult time for all those directly and indirectly affected by COVID-19 and we will strive to make sure we are doing everything possible to support those who might be potentially affected, especially patients themselves. We wish anyone affected, a speedy recovery and we will continue to be flexible in how we respond to this unprecedented health issue.
