Case Study: Top 5 Global Pharma Company achieves 100% remote site activation and under 30-day startup with Florence Healthcare

How a Top 5 Global Pharma Achieved 100% Remote Site Activation with Florence During the Pandemic and Beyond

Top 5 Global Pharma Company needed to rapidly activate sites for a pivotal Phase 2/3 vaccine trial during the COVID-19 pandemic, but traditional startup methods couldn’t meet accelerated timelines and pandemic restrictions made travel and hospital access impossible. The sponsor partnered with Florence Healthcare, leveraging its Site Experience Platform (including SiteLink and eBinders) to provide a fully digital approach to site activation and remote collaboration.

Florence Healthcare deployed its Site Experience Platform—SiteLink, eBinders and remote monitoring—to automate onboarding, enable secure real‑time document access, and support distributed teams. The solution delivered 100% remote site activation, reduced average time to first activity in the eISF to under 30 days, and scaled to over 2,600 sites across 41 countries supporting more than 100 protocols, improving startup speed and continuity of operations.
