Consultants	Fees associated with outside consultants that are not part of CRO Vendor fees.	The application does not calculate this cost.
CRF Printing	Costs for printing the CRF books, based on the number of pages per CRF book, the number of subjects in the study, the ply of the NCR paper, and the cost per page that you indicate on the Data tab. The costs for CRF distribution are the costs to package and ship the CRF books to each site.	The application assumes you print an average of fifteen percent of CRF Books. The application calculates this cost, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Drug Distribution - Special Handling	These costs apply to special costs associated with shipping the study drug/test article. Examples include the use of dry ice, custom fees, and central pharmacy shipping fees.	The application does not calculate this cost.
Drug Distribution - Standard Shipping	The application bases these costs on the location of the sites and which company is handling the distribution of the study drug or device being studied. These are estimated costs for storing and distribution of the study drug (test article) to the sites based on the frequency of shipments of the material being shipped.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Drug Packaging	Costs associated with the actual packaging and storage of the test article prior to routing to the distribution center. The application bases these costs on the location of the sites and which company is handling the packaging of the study drug. The method of packaging is a significant driver of these costs.	If your study drug or device requires special packaging and labeling, Oracle recommends that you override the estimate the application calculates. The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
DSMB Reporting	Costs associated with compiling and reporting information to the Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB).	The application calculates these costs based on several factors, including how often you report data to the Data Safety Monitoring Board. This assumption is on the Monitoring Tab.

Event Committee Costs	Costs associated with Event Committee costs, not including Initial and Annual IRB fees estimates.	The application does not calculate this cost.
FDA Audits	Costs associated with FDA audits. Actual FDA audits are not typically covered in bids from CROs, as these audits are typically conducted by the sponsor. When the FDA requires an audit, the CRO or sponsor handles this as a change order. If you know or expect a certain number of audits to occur, enter an estimated value here.	The application does not calculate this cost.
Investigator Grants - Grant Payments	All fees paid per subject to the investigator sites for enrollment into the study and in accordance with the study protocol. The application calculates this value based on the grant amount you enter on the Locations tab, by country, specifically for the numbers of subjects in each country. The grant amount calculation includes the number of subjects to randomize and the subject drop rate. The grant calculation for dropped subjects assumes each dropped subject only completes 75% of a completed CRF book. The grant calculation for a completed subject assumes 100% of the CRF is complete.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Investigator Grants - Overhead	All fees paid to sites requiring overhead and the percentage of overhead allowed per site specified on the Site tab.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Investigator Grants - Screen Failures	Screen failure payments made to the investigator sites. The application calculates this value based on various user input including the screen failure rate and the payment per screen failure.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Investigator Meetings	Costs associated with the Investigator meetings as specified on the Meetings tab. The application calculates this cost category based on the number of attendees from each site plus the expected vendor staff and sponsor staff as specified on the Meetings tab for each Investigator Meeting. This calculated value does not include any meeting planning fees, but does include the travel costs for the meeting planner, in addition to all other meeting attendees. If you plan to use a third-party meeting planner, the fees associated with the third party vendor should be added as a separate pass through cost. The pass through costs for investigator meetings include travel costs to and from the meeting venue(s) for the Vendor, Sponsor and Investigator and his or her representatives (study coordinator, sub investigator, etc). They also cover costs for the meals, meeting rooms, and other miscellaneous travel expenses for all parties. These costs are apportioned by vendor and the bulk of these expenses are apportioned to the planner of the investigator meeting as specified for each Investigator Meeting on the Meetings tab.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
IRB and Annual Renewal Fees	Initial and annual renewal fees for IRB or Ethics Committee Submissions. These are not part of the investigator grant and are paid by the sponsor for each site. These fees are calculated based on the number of Local and Central IRBs that are required for the study, specified on the Site tab, and the number of sites participating in the study.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
IVRS - Central Randomization	Includes IVRS Fees. If IVRS is not assigned to one of the plan providers, you should enter the costs associated with the IVRS or Central Randomization vendor here. This cost should include the setup, maintenance and close out of the IVRS system.

If IVRS is assigned to the sponsor or a third-party vendor, the application does not calculate these costs.
IVRS - Hardware Only	Any costs directly associated with an Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS). This value should not include other costs associated with an IVRS.	The application does not calculate this cost.
Labs - Central Lab	All fees paid to the Central Lab for analysis of safety labs. The application calculates these costs based on the number of subject visits, factors specific to the locations in which the sites and subjects are being treated, and the number of subjects being treated. These fees are an estimate for central laboratory analyses for standard safety labs (CBC, chemistry panel and urinalysis) and assumes that safety labs are done on all subjects at least 66.667% of all visits. These fees do not include costs that some Central Labs may charge for shipment of samples. You should add lab shipment fees either by adjusting this cost line item or entering costs under the Pass-Through Line Item labeled Drug Distribution - Special Handling.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Labs - Core Labs (e.g., Holter monitoring)	These costs are typically different than the central lab costs. They may include PK analysis, Central EKG Lab, Holter monitoring, specialized lab analysis, etc.	The application does not calculate this cost.

You should examine the Monitoring Schedule reports to help plan the optimal frequency and strategy.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
Travel - Other Travel Expenses	Other travel costs, such as drug accountability travel. The application calculates these costs separately from other travel costs.	The application calculates these costs, however, you can enter adjustments to raise or lower this value.
