Data Migration

Migrating legacy safety data is a major challenge. The mechanical process of translating data from one data structure to another is the easiest and smallest part of the problem. Where the problem becomes really complex is in:

Understanding the usage/meaning of the data in the old structure and how it can be translated
Dealing with the inevitable quality issues in the old data

Translating ancillary data such as business data, coding lists and usage of MedDRA such that these are usable in the new system

In our experience, not many of the commercial system suppliers properly understand or can deal with these challenges. We do!
Our data migration projects have included:

 

ARISg to Empirica Trace ES1-SafetyManager® to Empirica Trace ARISg to Argus Safety ARISg to Oracle AERS Oracle Clinical to Oracle Clinical Custom, home-grown systems based on Oracle, Paradox, and Access

Clintrial to Oracle Clinical Empirica Trace to Argus Safety Empirica Trace to ARISg Argus Safety to Empirica Trace COSTART and ICD9 to MedDRA
