Functional Service Provider (FSP) Outsourcing

Functional Service Provider for Clinical Trials

GForce Life Sciences provides Functional Service Provider (FSP) solutions that help biotech, pharma, and medical device companies outsource specialized clinical research functions, including clinical monitoring, data management, biostatistics, and medical writing. 

The FSP model is ideal for sponsors looking to scale efficiently while maintaining oversight. By choosing only the services you require, such as clinical monitoring, data management or medical writing, you avoid the high costs and operational overhead of full-service outsourcing. This tailored approach helps optimize internal resources, reduce trial timelines and improve agility across clinical operations.

Since some strategic preferred provider partnerships turn out to be neither strategic nor preferred, many clients choose to engage with an FSP for clinical research. With deep experience in the life sciences sector, GForce Life Sciences offers more than just outsourced services. We deliver knowledgeable support built around your unique needs.

Check out our complete FSP model guide to explore how the FSP model works and whether it’s right for your organization.

What We Can Do for You

We offer an extensive array of FSP outsourcing services aimed at helping you navigate the clinical trial phase successfully, including project and program management to cover practically everything related to the process. We also can provide you with site selection and management to lighten your load.

Throughout the testing phase, we diligently apply medical safety and clinical monitoring procedures. You can also count on our expertise to deliver FSP for data management, FSP biostatistics, and FSP for medical writing.

If you need one specialist or a fractional function lead rather than an FSP team, we can staff that through contract, consulting, and fractional support.
