Veeva DQS Features Brief

Veeva DQS is the central hub for Veeva’s Clinical Platform that automates 50% of data workflows and orchestrates risk-based actions across clinical applications. It ingests, harmonizes, and classifies trial data from all sources, and exports clean data for downstream use.

Benefits

• AI-enabled automation speeds time to data lock.

  DQS eliminates manual work by automating data workflows across clinical applications. Automation capabilities can now handle nearly all external data reconciliation, 50% of traditional manual queries, and up to 50% of protocol deviation detection and documentation.

• Ingest, harmonize, and classify all trial data.

  Veeva and external sources are ingested, classified by criticality to the protocol, and harmonized to a common data model. This increases efficiency by enabling the expanded automation of repetitive, high-volume tasks.

• Orchestrate risk-based actions across the study team.

  DQS provides a central, cross-functional environment to manage data and drive RBQM. It calculates KRIs and tracks review status across all study sources, and routes risk signals to trigger actions across the clinical platform.

• Provide true oversight with complete and current data.

  Study teams gain real-time visibility into subject readiness and trial status. Role-based dashboards provide tailored visualizations, by team or individual, to highlight priority actions at a glance.

Key Features

• Ingestion and Harmonization Engine

  The ingestion engine aggregates Veeva and external data sources and harmonizes them to a common data model automatically. This eliminates the need to build and maintain custom integrations, and to perform manual data transformations on import.

• Centralized Collaboration

  Designed to enhance cross-functional collaboration, DQS replaces disparate emails and spreadsheets with a centralized workbench—bringing all data sources and all teams together into a single shared environment.

• Data Classification

  DQS automatically recognizes clinical concepts, maps incoming data to study endpoints, and categorizes it by criticality so users can easily identify the most important data.

• Visual Dashboards

  Dashboards for cross-functional review, query metrics, and more provide instant insights into data trends and review status across sites and data providers.

• Automated Query Management

  New and incoming data from all sources are validated against the review plan when loaded into DQS. Queries are automatically created when discrepancies are found and closed when they are resolved.

• Task Orchestration

  Collaboration features let medical reviewers and data managers work together on data review without sending queries to sites. Users can create observations on specific data points and assign tasks to individuals or teams.

• Automated Protocol Deviations

  Protocol deviations across all data sources can be programmatically identified or manually created from DQS. Protocol deviation records flow directly to Veeva CTMS through a productized connection, cutting processing time from weeks to hours.

• Clean Patient Tracker

  The Clean Patient Tracker provides a summary of all collected patient data, including review tracking and Autocheck status, with the ability to visualize by site and patient. It lets users manage data across sources and patients without jumping between source systems or relying on external spreadsheets.

• Automated RBQM Metrics

  Teams can define and track Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) and Quality Tolerance Limits (QTLs). Metrics and risk signals are automatically routed to Veeva CTMS to ensure continuous risk oversight and faster decision-making. Send metrics to sponsors or other clinical applications via API.

• Rapid Data Exports

  Provide clean, current data to analytics, reporting, and other downstream applications in near real time. Incremental EDC extracts are available every 15 minutes, with full extracts—including EDC and non-EDC data— available every 24 hours.

• Automated Change Detection

  Veeva DQS recognizes what incoming data are new or changed to eliminate redundant review. so data that has already been verified does not need to be verified again.
