Overview

The Delegation of Authority (DoA) log provides a record of a principal investigator’s (PI) decisions to allow specific site staff members to perform one or more of the PI’s study responsibilities. Instead of having to manually manage a paper-based, handwritten DoA log, the Digital Delegation feature enables users at your site to delegate, accept, and approve responsibilities directly in SiteVault, and SiteVault creates or updates the DoA log document for you.

Viewing the Delegation of Authority Log

When the PI approves, SiteVault generates a new or updated version of the Delegation of Authority (DoA) document and files it to the PI Oversight section of the study eBinder. You can view the DoA in your Study eBinder or by searching in your Library.
