Contract Programming Services

Data Capture - We create reliable, custom software applications to capture data, whether transcribed from paper forms or entered directly through dedicated workstations or web-based interfaces.

Data Transformation - We are masters at transforming data to meet research goals. We combine, sort, transpose, and restructure data sets to make them ready for analysis, presentation, archiving, export, or any other purpose. We perform data format conversions to and from the SAS environment.

Data Scrubbing - We implement study-specific validation rules (edit checks) to locate and report questionable data values, descriptive statistics to expose data outliers, and update programs to correct identified data errors.

Tables, Figures and Listings - We apply expert, in-depth knowledge of SAS programming to produce accurate statistical tables, figures, and listings. We format the statistical output to your specifications and provide clear documentation of how it was produced.

Medical Coding - We prepare free-text entries for analysis and tabulation by matching them to terms from standard dictionaries such as MedDRA and WhoART or special-purpose dictionaries.

Statistical Analysis - We create custom programs to calculate exploratory and inferential statistics, including descriptive statistics, frequency tabulations, general linear modeling, regression analysis, analysis of variance and covariance, factor analysis, and structural equation modeling.

Publication Support - We produce publication-quality tables and graphics to include in journal articles, grant proposals, final reports for FDA submissions, and other manuscripts.
