OneStudyTeam: Form Builder

How might we create a Form Builder within the StudyTeam Docs app that gives Clinicians the ability to design customized forms?

Context

My Role: Lead UX/UI Designer
Company: OneStudyTeam
Time: 3 months
Result: MVP version of Form Builder ready to develop ✨ (did not ship before I left)
Proposed Impact: Faster workflow for Sites, more consistent documentation, better reporting to Sponsors, shorter visits for patients
Problem

Currently, Clinicians do not have the capability to design necessary eSource Forms for their trials. Waiting for them to be built by OneStudyTeam Product Managers is slowing down the speed at which Clinical Trials can be completed, ultimately delaying the approval of life-saving medical treatments.
Solution

An intuitive, customizable Form Builder within the StudyTeam Docs app that grants all Clinicians the ability to create custom forms. A Form Builder that allows non-technical users to design with all of the necessary technical features to create eForms that meet the Protocol Requirements of each trial.

“We are nervous about all the time and number of engineers this new build is going to require.”
“Let’s start this build with a walking skeleton version that we can get into the hands of clinical trial personnel as soon as possible and then go from there.”
“This Form Builder needs to incorporate all of the current capabilities that we offer when we build the forms internally as well as the offerings of our top competitors.”
“Let’s find a middle ground and focus on building something that meets the needs of the Form Designers, test it with users, and then discuss scaling and future versions.”
