Is REDCap Part 11 Compliant?

REDCap has the technical features and capacities necessary to serve as an environment for a Part 11 compliant study. However, if the study requires compliance, the research team is responsible for validating their project. An FDA auditor will review for PROJECT LEVEL compliance.

SC-CTSI will not be undertaking the process to validate and maintain system-level Part 11 compliance for the USC instance of REDCap.
