What DSCS offers sponsors

Independent sites that are ready to work.

DSCS-supported sites are operationally prepared — trained staff, SOPs in place, and a consultant guiding them through your feasibility and activation requirements. Less hand-holding. Faster enrollment.

🗂️

Site Network Access

Access to DSCS's network of independent clinical research sites across therapeutic areas. Sites are actively managed and maintained to meet sponsor requirements — not cold leads from a database.

📊

Data-Backed Site Metrics

Enrollment rates, screen failure rates, startup timelines, and therapeutic area experience — available upon request for sites in the DSCS network. Make site selection decisions on data, not hope.

🔍

Site Identification & Selection Support

DSCS works alongside your team or CRO to identify sites that match your protocol's patient population, geographic requirements, and therapeutic area. We surface sites you wouldn't find otherwise.

Streamlined Feasibility & Activation

DSCS-supported sites receive direct guidance completing your feasibility questionnaire — resulting in higher-quality, more accurate responses. Fewer back-and-forths. Faster site selection decisions.

🤝

25+ Years of Industry Relationships

DSCS management brings decades of relationships on both the sponsor and site side. That means smoother negotiations, realistic startup expectations, and sites that know what a successful activation looks like.

📋

Regulatory Startup Readiness

Sites in the DSCS network receive guidance through regulatory startup — IRB submissions, delegation logs, and all required documents — before and during activation. Fewer delays from regulatory gaps.

From study placement inquiry to site activation.

DSCS operates as a bridge between sponsors and independent sites — facilitating the process on both sides so placements move faster and sites perform better.

01

Initial Contact & Study Overview

Tell us about your study — therapeutic area, phase, patient population, geographic requirements, and timeline. DSCS evaluates the fit against our active site network and responds with a candid assessment of what's possible.

02

Site Identification

DSCS identifies sites from our network that match your protocol's requirements. Each site has a documented profile — PI credentials, patient demographics, therapeutic area history, and infrastructure capabilities — available for review.

03

Feasibility Coordination

DSCS works with sites to ensure your feasibility questionnaire is completed accurately and thoroughly. Sites receive direct guidance on how to represent their capabilities — so you get responses that reflect reality, not optimism.

04

Site Selection Visit Preparation

Before you visit, DSCS prepares the site — documentation in order, staff trained, facility requirements reviewed. SSV time is spent evaluating capability, not catching up on prerequisites.

05

Contract & Budget Facilitation

DSCS participates in the negotiation process on the site side — helping sites understand your budget structure and accept terms faster. Sites remain the payee; DSCS ensures they understand what they're signing.

06

Regulatory & Startup Support

DSCS guides sites through regulatory packet completion — IRB, financial disclosures, delegation of authority — so the documents you receive are complete, reducing the back-and-forth that delays activation.

Full scope

What we bring to every partnership.

DSCS's sponsor-side value is built on one principle: sites that are prepared perform better. Everything we do is aimed at making your sites activation-ready before you invest time in them.

Let's find your sites.

DSCS works with sponsors and their representatives to place studies at independent sites that are prepared, trained, and motivated to enroll. Tell us about your study — we'll tell you what we have.
