| Biotech Case Study |
Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS)
Clinical operations for life science companies rely on Clinical Trial Management Systems (CTMS) for initiating, monitoring, and completing clinical trials and investigator studies. A CTMS provides reliable, up-to-date, easy-to-access information on:
- investigator sites
- site and sponsor staff
- patients
- payments
- data audits and site visits
- regulated documents
- study supplies
Many small companies rely on multiple spreadsheets to tackle this information. Unfortunately, spreadsheets are difficult to maintain and lack the ability to manage information based relationships between data. Explore Consulting developed a solution Microsoft Access to meet a clients need for low cost, quick development.

Clearing 'Cookies' to Fix NetSuite Code Release Issues
Often after NetSuite releases a new version users experience a decrease in performance speed and other possible issues. This is because NetSuite uses cookies and caching to improve the loading of pages.
When new code is released the previously used cookies may cause conflict resulting in problems with the NetSuite application. Below are instructions for clearing cookies and cached temporary Internet pages (using Internet Explorer; other browser instructions may vary). - Click 'Tools'
- Select 'Internet Options'
- Click the 'Delete Cookies' button
- Click the 'Delect Files' button
- A new window will pop-up; mark the 'Delete all offline content' checkbox
- Click 'Okay' in the pop-up
- Click 'Okay' in the Internet Options window
- Close the brower
- Open a new browser and re-login to NetSuite
You can also do a 'forced refresh' of any page in NetSuite by clicking CTRL + F5 and this also eliminates caching issues.
