Thank you Dr. Ganesan for your kind response to my question. Would you be able to devote some time so that I can understand this from you a little better, may be over phone?

Would anyone be able to help me identify areas where six sigma (in any form) can be used in clinical trials? Managing clinical trial operations is becoming challenging as we see more and more clinical trials coming to India, however we are still relaying a lot on the excel sheets to manage the entire operations. Sounds humorous, but true! Though there are some tools (oracle based) which have been of help, but these fail to cater to new thoughts and ideas where we might want to scrap a redundant process and/or create new ways of doing things. The answer I have got while interacting with people with some background of six sigma training has been very vague and lack clarity for me to break them down and see direct impact on the betterment of the project. Please help!!!
