Initially, ARCH professionals assess
and evaluate all research-relevant components within the hospital
to identify those that can be configured rapidly for use within
the research infrastructure.
Next, the hospital’s specialties and centers of expertise
are identified so that an attractive marketable “niche”
can be presented to the industry, thereby immediately setting
up a strong competitive position for the hospital. This process
positions the hospital on par with other firms long engaged in
research, greatly reducing the “start up” curve common
to new ventures.
Personnel are trained in procedures, and systems are set up to
expedite research projects conforming to these specific niche
markets. The development course may vary, but it generally takes
four to six months to integrate CPM
program objectives.
