High-quality, CDISC-compliant SDTM datasets are the result of coordinated teamwork, rather than individual effort. Modern clinical trials rely on a multidisciplinary “SDTM Squad” made up of Data Managers, Standards Managers, Clinical Programmers, and Biostatisticians, each contributing specialized expertise to produce submission-ready data. While these roles originate from different domains, they share a foundational understanding of CDISC standards – whether through SDTM variables on aCRFs, CDASH-based EDC systems, or standardized specifications – which helps break down silos and enables more collaborative, efficient workflows.
As standards evolve and expectations for speed, accuracy, and AI-assisted processes increase, there is no single correct approach to SDTM creation, but there are smarter ones. By recognizing and leveraging the strengths of each role, teams can redesign workflows, distribute responsibilities more effectively, and innovate.
This poster highlights the unique skills each role brings, along with emerging AI contributions, to demonstrate how strategic collaboration can accelerate SDTM creation while maintaining regulatory compliance.

When standardized forms power your EDC-based data collection, everyone wins. Data managers save time in study builds, site personnel enjoy a clear data entry experience, and clinical programmers get a head start in dataset conversion. But do you get to this state? Hint: it’s not by jumping between spreadsheets and multiple EDC test environments…
Join us for a live demonstration of Certara’s Pinnacle 21 Enterprise CRF Creator – the platform designed to centralize the form design for EDC Build. Learn how to visualize forms, manage the approvals process in real-time, and build a full study design file for your chosen EDC system in a single environment.

As clinical trials grow more complex, trust in data must be engineered – not assumed. This demo session explores how a centralized metadata management platform enables transparency, traceability, and consistency across the clinical data lifecycle. We will show how metadata-driven workflows support standards of alignment, reduce downstream rework, and strengthen confidence in regulatory submissions.
