<p>Yet still some doubts persist. If a sponsor submits analytical results using Tool X, but the agency reviewer re-analyses the data with Tool Y and sees a different result, who owns reconciling the differences? The sponsor, via a time-bound Information Request from the agency? The agency? The developer of Tool X? When the majority of analysis uses only one tool for analysis, this situation is likely to be a rare occurence. But when the toolset available to both sponsors and agencies becomes wider, then resolving these questions is likely to come up more often.</p>
<p>And what about agencies who typically do not re-analyse sponsor data? How can the industry provide reassurance and proof that analytical environments are validated: accurate, reproducible and traceable? When installation of software into an environment is a one-step process, we can be pretty sure of consistency across analysts. But if there are multiple steps involved, and the software can change almost daily, then how do we ensure this consistency and reproducibility? This is not just the job of IT organisations within sponsor companies, but the responsibility of the individual analyst, to ensure that they are working compliant with organisational processes and in validated environments. Audit trails and traceability helps ensure this, but it is a potential source of doubt for both sponsor and regulatory authority.</p>
