Whether you need an outside assessment of where things stand, hands-on help building the right policies and processes, or ongoing guidance to keep your program running smoothly, HRP’s advisory services adapt to your stage and your goals.
General consulting covers the full scope of HRP’s services and is frequently provided on an “on-call” basis, giving our clients maximum flexibility in how they use HRP while fully controlling their budget. On-call consulting may also be accessed for regulatory questions, development or review of policies and procedures, support with issues that arise during the conduct of research (unanticipated problems, noncompliance and similar), training, and other services.
Many organizations recognize the value in having an external entity conduct a comprehensive, unbiased review of their research oversight programs and committees — evaluating compliance, structure, effectiveness, efficiency, processes, accreditation readiness, staffing, or any number of factors. Program evaluations help organizations identify and understand strengths, weaknesses and areas of potential risk, and where to best focus their attention.

HRP maintains a suite of template Standard Operating Procedures, forms, checklists and other tools to support compliance with federal regulations, guidance and accreditation standards. Customization is critically important — one of the most common findings in inspections, audits and accreditation reviews is the failure to adhere to one’s own written policies and procedures. Using HRP’s templates as a point of reference or a base, our consultants can work with your organization to evaluate and enhance existing materials or develop new ones, always customized to your organization.
HRP is frequently asked to provide an independent assessment of investigator, committee or program compliance with regulatory or accreditation standards. Whether routine QA or for-cause, comprehensive or targeted, or an evaluation of inspection or accreditation readiness, HRP is prepared to help.
