Registers a study before it starts: project name, sponsor, background, objectives, scope, method, milestones, dates, budget, risks, the decision it informs, the sample plan and the approval record.
Quick answer
Registers a study before it starts: project name, sponsor, background, objectives, scope, method, milestones, dates, budget, risks, the decision it informs, the sample plan and the approval record.
Studies drift when nobody registered what they were for. This initiation record puts seventeen fields down before work starts: project name, sponsor, context, objectives, scope, research method, timeline and milestones, planned start and end dates, budget, risks and assumptions, the decision the research will inform, the target population and sample plan, approval authority, sign-off and approval date. The result is a registry of active studies instead of scattered knowledge, and every later request can be traced to a registered decision.
