Quintiles has been named to the 2014 CIO 100. Each year, CIO magazine identifies and honors 100 organizations that have distinguished themselves by creating business value through the effective and innovative use of IT.

Quintiles was named to the CIO 100 because of its transformational Quintiles Infosario Safetysolution, a drug safety technology platform which is fully integrated with relevant regulatory agencies and future-proofed through a community development model.

During development of Quintiles Infosario Safety, the company consolidated more than 35 individual drug safety systems and pooled a wide range of best practices and processes to create a highly optimized and efficient operating model to help its biopharmaceutical customers ensure that all regulatory requirements for drug safety management are met on a global basis. Quintiles then developed an entire portfolio of safety applications, regulatory agency integrations and implementation accelerators virtualized and deployed in its private cloud, securely available 24 hours a day, seven days a week via web browser.
