As AI promises to become integral to clinical data management, making thoughtful decisions about its use is critical. Here are ten focused questions to guide your thought process:

  1. How will AI improve the accuracy, speed, and efficiency of data cleaning, review, and query management in your trials?
  2. Will AI help reduce manual data management tasks and create cost-effective, scalable solutions for handling large datasets?
  3. Will the AI solution enhance collaboration across teams, such as data management, clinical operations, and biostatistics, or is it specific to one function?
  4. How will AI-powered tools impact your timelines—can it support real-time data analysis and decision-making during trials?
  5. What long-term value will AI add by improving data quality, regulatory compliance, or streamlining processes like database locking?
  6. Are you interested in AI to identify data anomalies and enhance predictive analytics, or is it more focused on automating existing processes?
  7. What are the potential risks of AI in terms of patient privacy, data integrity, and compliance with regulatory standards?
  8. How will the AI solution remain updated and evolve with new models and developments, avoiding stagnation after the initial implementation?
  9. Will the AI system align with the values and expectations of your trial sponsors, regulators, and patients?
  10. How quickly do you expect to see measurable improvements in data quality, efficiency, or cost savings after adopting AI?

These questions will help evaluate how AI can be a strategic advantage in achieving faster, more reliable clinical outcomes.
