The Challenge

What Fragmented Compliance Workflows Cost Your Institution

Most institutions did not choose to run compliance across four systems. It happened one committee at a time. The result is four vendors, four logins and no way to answer a leadership question without asking four offices first.
Each committee runs on a different system with different conventions
Investigators learn a separate submission process for every committee
Protocols that need multiple approvals are tracked manually across systems
Audit and accreditation preparation becomes a cross-departmental project
What You Get

One System, Faster Approvals, Inspection-Ready Documentation

Key Solutions runs human subjects, animal care, biosafety, stem cell oversight, radiation and chemical safety, controlled substances and post-approval monitoring in one environment. Committees keep their own review paths. Leadership gets one view.

One system across every committee

IRB, IACUC, IBC, SCRO, RSC, CSC, controlled substances and post-approval monitoring run on a single integrated platform rather than four vendor relationships.

Administrative load reduced

Automated routing, reminders and reporting cut the manual coordination that consumes coordinator time, so renewals and compliance tasks complete on schedule.

Inspection-ready at all times

Detailed documentation and a continuous audit trail across all committees mean preparation becomes retrieval rather than reconstruction.

Faster approvals through shared data

Integrated committee workflows let a protocol reference existing records instead of collecting the same facts three times.

Submit
Investigators use one interface regardless of which committee needs to review.
Route
Each committee keeps its own review paths, thresholds and conventions.
Review
Protocols requiring multiple approvals are tracked in one place rather than manually.
Approve
Determinations, conditions and expirations are recorded consistently across committees.
Report
Institutional compliance activity is reportable in one view instead of four exports.
Capabilities

Capabilities and What Each One Changes

Human Subjects Review

IRB submissions, determinations, amendments and continuing review sit on one record, so the board works from one version.

Animal Care and Use Review

IACUC protocol review, approvals and annual review run in the same environment as every other committee.

Biosafety Review

IBC registrations, agent records and containment review sit alongside the protocols they relate to.

Stem Cell, Radiation and Chemical Safety

SCRO, RSC and CSC review run on the same platform, so a specialist committee does not need a specialist system.

Post-Approval Monitoring

Ongoing oversight activity is recorded against the original approval rather than in a separate log.

Institutional Reporting

Compliance activity across all committees can be pulled on demand instead of reconciled from exports.
