Efficiency and Speed

Implement evidence-informed practices and scientific and operational innovations to accelerate the pace of translational research.

Example approaches:

• Scientific Efficiencies: Develop and implement innovations in scientific approaches, methods and technologies that accelerate the pace of translational research.
• Collaboration Efficiencies: Implement evidence-informed practices to enhance the speed at which collaborations and teams form, develop a shared vision and goals, effectively communicate, and coordinate work tasks.
• Project Management Efficiencies: Implement milestone-based decision making to enable rapid agreement on go/no-go decisions, to enable resources to be used most efficiently.
• Organizational Environment: Reward efficiency, enable rapid failures and encourage redirection of resources to subsequent attempts.
