What we do

Working with leading authors, we build bespoke automated data capture and business process management solutions based on solid, well-supported products to help you optimise operations, improve productivity, accelerate growth, and meet regulatory requirements. Our process automation solutions include:

Business process management

From simple ad-hoc departmental workflows to full enterprise business process management, we bring order to complex processes.

At ePC, we spend time with you to understand what problems you are trying to solve, what the current “As Is” process is and what your “Future” desired state looks like.

Once we have mapped out your process(es), business process management software (BPMS) is used to implement your perfect solution.

Electronic forms

Our eForms platform enables you to build rich, dynamic and secure electronic forms that work and behave in an intuitive way.

Platform features include real-time data validation, user authentication, automated notifications, workflow automation, dashboard reports, audit trails for regulatory compliance, and much more.

Whether you need to migrate from paper to an electronic form or want to get online as quickly as possible, we can build a bespoke eForm to meet your needs.

Workflow automation

Although simple data capture processes may consist of electronic forms with data exports, it is often necessary to pass form data from one participant to another for authorisation, review or other action.

Our low-code BPMS platforms include point-and-click workflow engines to graphically model and execute your business process(es).

This allows you to automate your organisation - reducing the load on your users while adhering to corporate policies and compliance regulations.

            I also want to thank you for your excellent service and support this year, it is always much appreciated and you are a valued supplier.

            The implementation has been a smooth process. ePC have been really helpful throughout the project. They were able to offer advice when designing / planning the eCRF and help us iron out challenges before they became major issues. Their advice has really helped us focus on what data we needed to collect in order to meet trial objectives and regulatory requirements. I highly recommend them to other CTU’s seeking to implement an eForms system.

            Teleform/ePC have been the lynchpin of data collection in our home diagnostic clinical trials for many years. As a small team, the software has given us cost-effective and flexible control to manage a diverse range of paper-based trials using a fully-featured form designer with support for downstream verification workflows all the way to export, while ePC have been instrumental in managing and maintaining the service availability with a high standard of professionalism and technical capability

            Designing, processing and analysing thousands of questionnaires a year requires an effective and efficient data capture system. TeleForm, provided by ePC, has been the central hub to this system for many years - we could not function without it.

          • stars

            ePC understood what we wanted. On a number of occasions, we described roughly what we would like in terms of capability but not in any great detail. They captured the simplicity of what was required without compromising on functionality.

          • stars

            We were mindful of the CapEx – and product creation – systems ePC had implemented and aware they worked well. In the end, the system had a lot of ticks against it and we did not see the value of going to another supplier when ePC had a box of tricks that worked well for us.
