Proven technologies to empower your science.

We deliver a robust and carefully curated technology portfolio that can be tailored to the needs of your environment no matter where you are in the clinical journey.

We have deep expertise in a diverse range of technologies that are needed to support the data-driven computing demands of life sciences organizations, from preclinical discovery through real-world data collection after commercial launch. We integrate both familiar, vetted technologies and emerging innovations into our solutions ensuring they meet the specific needs of life science organizations, including scalability and regulatory compliance.

The technologies we deliver

In the life sciences space, SAS is revered for its robustness, compliance capabilities, and track record in handling complex datasets. It is particularly valued in environments where adherence to regulatory standards is critical, such as clinical trials and drug development. SAS provides a stable, secure, and comprehensive analytics framework that supports every phase of the drug development process from preclinical statistics to post-market surveillance.

Working with our hosting partner to provide a full-service life sciences compliant community cloud, Strong Tower offers a fully supported SAS-hosted solution with defendable infrastructure for your regulatory environment. With more than 15 years of experience working with SAS software, we have successfully delivered dozens of SAS environments and over 100 qualified installations of SAS for pharmaceutical and clinical research organizations of all sizes. Following are our SAS software offerings.
