Some institutions have multiple compliance committees that support programs at different locations or with specific oversight needs. The Cayuse Animal Oversight and Hazard Safety applications can accommodate institutions with multiple IACUC and/or IBC committees. Consultants are available to guide customers through the available options to identify the best solution for their institution.
When an institution chooses to support multiple committees within a single tenant using the multi-site capability, key configurations and setup data will be shared across the compliance programs. These include:
- Protocol form verbiage
- Email verbiage
- Protocol dictionary lists (e.g., species for Animal Oversight, agents for Hazard Safety)
Committee data will remain unique to each site, including committee member lists, meeting dates, agendas, and minutes. Facility, facility contact, and room data will also be specific to each site.
For institutions requiring distinct protocol forms or emails for each committee, utilizing multiple tenants may be the best approach. Each tenant will maintain completely separate metadata and data, enabling committees to create customized protocol forms, email verbiage, and setup lists.
Please note: Shared configurations and data are summarized in the table image below.
