Introduction

Clinical trials are entering a new era—and health data collected as part of routine care is at the heart of this transformation. As Europe scales up the reuse of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) in regulated clinical research, "EHR as eSource" is rapidly becoming a cornerstone of smarter, faster, and more inclusive trials.

This shift is powered not only by hospitals and sponsors—but by the technologies that connect them. Vendors like yours are essential partners in enabling interoperable, scalable, and compliant data integration models.

The Vendor Reference Group will bring together vendors that are relevant in the enabling of the eSource capability such as EHR vendors, EDC providers, EHR-to-EDC middleware developers, eSource Infrastructure providers, and eSource Service Integrators to co-develop, validate, and implement the tools needed for large-scale adoption.

Benefits of Participation

As a member of the Vendor Reference Group, you will:

  • Collaborate directly with hospitals and sponsors on operational guidance, use cases, and implementation blueprints
  • Shape the evolution of vendor-neutral eSource integration patterns aligned with global standards such as HL7® FHIR® and CDISC
  • Gain early insight into regulatory expectations and interoperability benchmarks through the Task Force’s KPI and Playbook deliverables
  • Enhance your positioning as a strategic eSource enabler within a growing ecosystem of digitally mature sites and leading sponsors

You will also be part of a consensus-driven process to co-author outputs such as white papers, annexes to the eSource Playbook, and technical checklists that are already in use across our Hospital and Sponsor Reference Groups.

"I was delighted to be able to join the eSource taskforce, to contribute to its constructive reflections on what it will take to effectively and efficiently scale the adoption and realisation of the benefits of eSource, and engage with diverse thought leaders representing all of the stakeholders in the ecosystem."

David Champeaux CEO, Evidentli

"CRIO joined the i~HD taskforce because every conversation about eSource eventually returns to the same question: are we actually making it easier for the coordinator at the site, or are we just shifting work around? iHD is one of the few groups asking that question with the discipline it deserves, and CRIO wants to be in the room contributing, not watching from the sidelines."

Raymond Nomizu & Jonathan Andrus Co-CEOs, CRIO

“As a tech company supporting clinical trial operations, we believe building effective solutions starts with deeply understanding the people who use them every day; from principal investigators and study coordinators, to CRAs, data managers, and pharma leadership. The eSource taskforce creates a valuable environment to exchange perspectives across stakeholders, helping us build technology that truly fits the needs of the clinical trial ecosystem.”

Valerie Vandeweerd CEO, Monsana

"Axtria Clinical Solutions specialises in the implementation and scaling challenges that sit between vendor capabilities and sponsor needs. We saw the eSource Taskforce as an opportunity to help bridge that gap and contribute practical insights from enterprise eSource programs."

Jo-Zahn Baxter Director, Digital Transformation and R&D Clinical Solutions, Axtria
