Our Safety Database Migration & Related Validation Services
At Techsol, we understand the critical nature of safety data. Our expert team uses proven data migration methods with advanced tools to ensure your data is transferred with the highest level of accuracy. We meticulously validate each data point to avoid discrepancies and preserve data integrity throughout the migration process. Our data migration qualification is performed using the GAMP5 Risk-based methodology. We provide consulting guidance to your team at every step right from defining the data migration strategy to post-launch and hypercare.
Safety Data Migration Strategy & Planning
We help clients to establish a risk-based safety data migration strategy and prepare the migration plan based on:
> Source data format and case volume in legacy safety systems
> Data migration scope, business requirements, timelines & deliverables
> Quality and regulatory compliance objectives
> Readiness of the target Oracle Argus Safety Cloud platform
> Identified measures for data quality assessments
Safety Data Migration Execution
> Source Data Collection: Our team uses advanced ETL tools to perform safety data extraction from different source systems and raw files (PDF, XML, JSON, etc.). The collected data is then profiled with data quality checks to ensure that all data points are available for migration.
> Data Preparation & Transformation : All E2B field mappings, data cleansing, data transformations are performed for accurate migration into Oracle Argus Safety.
> Post-Migration Review and Support: After migration, we conduct a thorough review to ensure data accuracy and compliance. We provide ongoing support to address any issues and optimize system performance.
Safety Data Migration Testing & Validation
We use the GAMP-5 Risk-based validation approach to perform Data Migration Qualification.

Common FAQs
The common pitfalls and challenges faced during safety data migration include:
- Inadequate planning and an insufficient data migration plan
- Limited knowledge of the safety database and its functionality
- Misinterpreted business rules within the safety database
- Technical issues related to types and limits of input characterization
- Inconsistent available data
- Follow-up or duplicates management
- Data cleaning process
- Case related documentation (source data, correspondence, etc.)
- Poorly defined scope and inadequate testing, leading to a typical success rate of only 16-60% for the data migration portion of projects
- Mapping errors, different dictionary maintenance practices, and MedDRA/WHO coding inconsistencies
To mitigate these challenges, it is crucial to develop a thorough Data Migration Plan that evaluates different approaches, products, or the number of cases that will be migrated. The plan should include a clear strategy, guidance to mitigate interruptions, and steps to achieve compliance. Additionally, pre-migration testing, configuration of migration software, and parallel process reengineering can help address these pitfalls
