Case Study: a leading global contract research organization saves $288,000 in clinical trials data migration testing with QuerySurge

Contract Research Organization Saves $288,000 in Clinical Trials Data Migration Testing Project

A leading global contract research organization was facing a critical challenge in upgrading its Oracle Siebel Clinical Trial Management System. The organization needed to ensure that over 300,000 records were accurately migrated from a legacy system to the new one, as any incorrect or duplicated data risked massive lost productivity, decreased system performance, and serious cost implications for its clinical trials, which average $46 million each.

QuerySurge was implemented as a big data test automation solution to address this challenge. The vendor created a suite of tests to compare and verify 100% of the migrated data. This process discovered 24 critical defects, preventing costly manual corrections and compliance issues. The use of QuerySurge automated what would have been 4,800 manual person-hours of work, saving the organization $288,000 and nearly 4,800 hours on the project.
