At DPHARM Idol Disrupt 2025, Strategikon’s Head of Product, Andrei Antonescu, presented how AI and orchestration technology are redefining clinical trial outsourcing and vendor management.
With over 60% of trial activities outsourced, inefficiencies in current processes cost the industry billions each year. Strategikon’s mission is simple: to save clinical outsourcing through AI-driven innovation.
The Challenge: Spreadsheet Chaos in Clinical Trial Operations
Clinical outsourcing is far more complex than traditional outsourcing. Sponsors and CROs face:
- Fragmented vendor data and manual RFP processes
- Multiple bid grids, rate cards, and trackers
- Time-consuming, error-prone analysis
This “spreadsheet chaos” creates inefficient trial operations, costly delays, and missed opportunities for faster patient access to therapies.
The Solution: AI-Powered Orchestration for Clinical Outsourcing
Strategikon has built the first AI-enabled orchestration platform for clinical trial outsourcing and vendor management.
Three Foundational Layers
- Workflow Layer – Purpose-built by industry experts to mirror real sponsor and CRO processes.
- Structured Data Layer – All bid grids, rate cards, and templates digitized for comparability.
- Intelligence Layer (AI) – Natural language interaction, automated analytics, and actionable insights.
This isn’t AI for the sake of AI — it’s intelligence layered on a structured system built for clinical trial operations.
Real-World Impact: AI in Action

Without AI: Hours of manual work creating RFPs, reviewing spreadsheets, and writing reports.
With Strategikon’s AI-powered platform:
- Draft new sourcing events in minutes using AI templates
- Instantly compare vendor proposals side by side
- Auto-generate executive summaries
- Surface vendor risk and governance insights with a smart AI copilot
The result: Faster decisions, clearer insights, and streamlined vendor management.
