Timelines

A clearly-defined project timeline is a key tool to effectively managing and delivering on a study. WCC prepares a comprehensive timeline at the beginning of each study. Project timelines are presented to the sponsor team during the introductory call and updated, as needed, based on study progress. Updated timelines are presented and discussed on a regular basis throughout each trial.
