Abstract: A system for determining relative operational performance in a clinical trial may include a processor, a data comparator and visualizer, and a graphical user interface. The processor filters received clinical data into multiple metric criteria to generate multiple metric data sets and filters each metric data set into a respective industry data set and a respective candidate data set. The processor then calculates statistical measures for each industry data set and candidate data set and transforms each industry data set and candidate data set based on each data set's respective statistical measures. The data comparator and visualizer compares each transformed candidate data set to the transformed industry data set for the respective metric criterion to determine a candidate percentile for each metric criterion. The graphical user interface displays the candidate percentiles for the metric criteria. A method for determining relative operational performance in a clinical trial is also described.
