Our network allows us to furnish our clients with direct access to the most up-to-date medical and therapeutic expertise, and current leading scientific trends.

SOCAR’s vast and highly successful experience using our propriety software - SOCDAT™ (Source Consultation Data Acquisition Tool), in support of numerous research studies using paper CRFs performed around the globe, served as the inspiration for our development of e-SOCDAT™. Both SOCDAT™ and e-SOCDAT™ combine the clinical and operational data within the same relational database allowing this information to be logically grouped together. Both systems have been continuously modified and updated regularly, with strict change control practices and in accordance with the continuous improvement process business model followed by SOCAR in connection with the delivery of our products and services.

We provide exceptional personalised service to clients which enhances the conduct and execution of high quality, scientifically-robust research studies in a flexible, time-efficient and cost-effective manner.
