I’m an RTSM-EDC integration specialist with over 12 years of experience in system integrations and API specifications. Before entering the clinical trial space, I spent seven years as an IT Business Systems Analyst for a global truck manufacturer, working hands-on with API specifications and enterprise system integrations. I then spent five years at Suvoda, one of the clinical trial industry’s leading RTSM platforms, where my career spanned the full scope of IRT and integration work:
I’m an RTSM-EDC integration specialist with over 12 years of experience in system integrations and API specifications. Before entering the clinical trial space, I spent seven years as an IT Business Systems Analyst for a global truck manufacturer, working hands-on with API specifications and enterprise system integrations. I then spent five years at Suvoda, one of the clinical trial industry’s leading RTSM platforms, where my career spanned the full scope of IRT and integration work:
Project Manager, IRT Implementation (1 year)
Managed IRT implementation timelines, coordinated cross-functional teams, and ensured integrations were validated and go-live ready.
Senior Integrations Solutions Consultant, Lead (2 years)
Owned end-to-end integration delivery between RTSM and EDC platforms. Designed data transfer specifications, mapped data fields, resolved integration issues, and served as the primary technical liaison between sponsors, CROs, and vendor teams.
Technical Consultant, IRT (2 years)
Configured and deployed IRT systems for sponsors and CROs, building deep knowledge of randomization, drug supply, dosing, and visit schedule workflows.
IT Business Systems Analyst, Global Truck Manufacturer (7 years)
Worked extensively with API specifications and enterprise system integrations at a global scale. Developed deep expertise in integration requirements, data mapping between complex business systems, and cross-functional coordination — a foundation that directly translates to the RTSM-EDC integration challenges I solve today.
Platform Experience
Platform Experience
My deepest hands-on experience is with Suvoda (RTSM), Medidata Rave (EDC), and Veeva EDC. I’ve worked with the data formats, APIs, and integration patterns specific to these platforms and understand how their architectures shape integration decisions.
Why I Started This Practice
Why I Started This Practice
After years of seeing the same integration problems repeat across studies — unclear requirements, incomplete DTS documents, undertested data flows, and finger-pointing between vendors — I saw an opportunity to help sponsors and CROs get ahead of these issues. Most organizations don’t have a dedicated integration expert, and the vendors aren’t incentivized to fill that gap. Luis Rodriguez Consulting exists to be the independent integration specialist that sits between your RTSM and EDC teams and makes sure the data flows work.
My Approach
My Approach
I believe integration problems are mostly preventable. The work I do is front-loaded by design — thorough requirements, precise DTS documents, and rigorous UAT planning — because fixing an integration issue before go-live costs a fraction of what it costs after. I work as an extension of your team, not as a black-box consultant who delivers a report and disappears.
