From the start of this ambitious project, BGO specialists created this software solution, with a clear perspective of AI data analysis and voice navigation, which makes it smart and can adapt on the fly to reduce the time for data capture.
The Challenge
Metaforms was an aspiring project, that led our teams into a variety of milestones and problem-solving tasks.
In order to add business value and serve the main product vision, the project faced some real-time challenges. Process digitization is expensive, slow and heavy to implement, many organizations yet rely on manual filling and exchange of paper forms. In addition to that, existing electronic systems have a hard time exchanging data and staff training is required.
Fast and easy eCRF generation, questionnaires and online documents require a quick response to changes in Study Protocols, regulations, and more. Achieving functional specifications like, publishing declarations and collecting consents as well as analysis and provision of data, made Metaforms a complex and challenging project.
Тhe Solution
Metaforms is a high-end web application that can easily digitize your existing paper-based forms and export the collected data to various formats. Every user can design and publish the created procedure forms, questionnaires and assign forms to users or groups in the organization. Metaforms is developed to also ease the process of integration with existing systems.
