Hey Everyone. We at Emory have been using OMOP for a while with a variety of projects, but we have finally got our ducks in a row to implement OMOP at an enterprise level. For support of many of our research products, we have a product manager that will lead the adoption and operation of that product. We’d like to do the same with OMOP/Atlas. I was curious if other institutions have a similar role for their OMOP instance. If so, what do you call that role and what are their responsibilities? The type of responsibilities I was thinking this person would perform:
- Develop and maintain any training guides along with holding regular training
- Coordinate, manage and facilitate stakeholder meetings and community outreach events
- Work directly with users (researchers) to understand needs and address barriers
- Managing access to Atlas toolset
- stay abreast on product roadmap and manage product upgrades and implementation of new modules
I’d love to understand what other institutions are doing to support OMOP as a product in their environments.
