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.
eSource Technology Vendors Reference Group
Introduction
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.
Invitation to participate in the Vendor Reference Group
On the 25th of September 2025, the eSource Scale Up Task Force hosted the Kick-off Webinar to present the concept of collaboration with vendors and providers.
