Medpace Receives First Place in ACRP-Avoca CRO Quality Awards

  • April 30, 2018
Medpace (MEDP), a scientifically-driven, global full-service clinical research organization (CRO), was recognized with the first-ever ACRP-Avoca CRO Quality Award on April 27th during the ACRP-Avoca Awards and Recognition Ceremony taking place at the ACRP 2018 annual meeting. Medpace was announced as a finalist by ACRP in March.

About the Award

Finalists for the ACRP-Avoca Quality Awards were chosen by investigational sites through a research study conducted by The Avoca Group over an eight-week period in early 2018. In this research, investigational sites were asked to rate CRO attributes aligned to quality outcomes. Specifically, functional attributes that support quality into design, execution, and oversight of clinical trials, as well as soft-skill areas such as communication and partnership.

“We congratulate all the finalists for having proven their ability to work effectively with investigate sites. This includes their ability to appreciate site operations, manage relationships, and provide high-quality CRA support,” says Jim Kremidas, ACRP Executive Director. “Recognition of quality partners in the clinical trial community greatly supports our mission to promote excellence in clinical research.”

“We are thrilled to collaborate with ACRP and to give investigational sites a platform to recognize organizations who provide high-quality support in the clinical research process,” says Patricia Leuchten, CEO of The Avoca Group. “Continued collaboration between sites, sponsors, and CROs, will yield long-term, positive impact on the quality and execution of clinical trials.”

Congratulations to all of the Medpace colleagues who facilitate a culture of quality every day as we execute on our mission to accelerate the global development of safe and effective medical therapeutics.
