eCOA Migration Services
Adapt paper-based instruments for electronic administration across 150+ languages.
What is eCOA Migration?
Electronic Clinical Outcome Assessment (eCOA) migration adapts paper-based instruments for electronic administration on tablets, smartphones, and web-based platforms.
Our eCOA migration services cover the complete localization workflow from platform translation through screenshot review, audio recording, and format adaptation.
Because regulators treat the electronic version as a new mode of administration, every migrated instrument must demonstrate measurement equivalence with the validated paper original. We document screen-by-screen fidelity, preserve item wording and response scales exactly, and capture the evidence sponsors need to defend equivalence during regulatory review.
