Site Management Coordination Objective #1: Work closely with network staff, OCSO, OPCRO, and other DAIDS offices to
identify and address priority site management issues.
Strategies and activities to support this objective:
Network Leaders, OCSO, OPCRO, and other stakeholders will identify an evolving list of site management issues and
opportunities to better coordinate their respective efforts. This list may include: SDMC issues, reducing confusion
around site monitoring by clarifying site new performance monitoring policies, clarifying DAIDS and networks
respective responsibilities, harmonizing site establishment and protocol activation processes, identifying fiscal
management best practices, and ensuring site preparedness for regulatory audits.
HANC will disseminate OPCRO and OCSO policies, memos, SOPs for comment and/or general distribution to network operation centers as requested.
HANC will hold regular calls with OCSO and OPCRO leadership to facilitate communication and coordination of sitelevel activities.
HANC will convene topic-specific working groups on an ad-hoc basis to address site-level issues.
Site Management Coordination Objective #2: Discuss and address issues relevant to harmonization of policies, procedures,
and training at the site level across the networks core operations centers.
Strategies and activities to support this objective:
The Cross-Network Site Coordinators Working Group (SCWG) will hold monthly site coordinator teleconferences dedicated to addressing significant site issues common
across the networks.
The SCWG will discuss issues that emerge with network leadership, core/operations centers, OCSO, OPCRO, and/or
the Office of the DAIDS Director as appropriate.
The SCWG will provide site-level perspective to DAIDS, SDMCs, and or core/operations centers on new or revised
policies and procedures.
The SCWG will identify opportunities to harmonize the protocol site activation process and procedures across the
core/op centers and SDMCs.
