The eSource Scale Up Task Force of The European Institute for Innovation through Health Data (i~HD) has launched a new, standardised CRC Satisfaction Survey aimed at helping generate critical evidence of eSource's impact on usability and site burden.

This document is an extension of the earlier i~HD deliverable "Selected KPI's for eSource-enabled Trials" which outlines key performance indicators to support the effective scale-up of eSource solutions. This new annex provides a detailed methodology for KPI No. 5: "User-friendly CRC Experience & Perceived Reduced Site Burden", focusing on a standardised survey instrument designed specifically for Clinical Research Coordinators (CRCs) at investigational sites with hands-on experience using eSource systems.

Through broader application, the tool aims to build an evidence base that supports data-driven decision-making and continuous improvement in the deployment of eSource technologies.
