ORGANIZATIONAL
DEPENDENCIES
ORGANIZATIONAL DEPENDENCIES
The Clinical Center operating plan is created to support the
NIH intramural program by fostering alignment of clinical research
improvement efforts across the NIH. Because the Clinical Center
is a major support component of the intramural program, the success
of all CC key initiatives is dependent upon cooperation and collaboration
from Institutes and other NIH components.
The degree of collaboration required for key initiatives varies.
Some initiatives can be launched and implemented relatively independently
by the CC while others are entirely dependent upon partnerships
outside the CC. The following table identifies
the degree of organizational dependency of each key initiative.
The descriptions below provide definitions of the relative degree
of dependency.
Descriptions of Relative Degree of
Dependency of
Key Initiatives
Low
Clinical Center can undertake and accomplish initiative relatively independently.
Medium
Clinical Center will initiate and lead project but will require input, participation, and ìbuy-inî from Institutes and other NIH components for successful implementation.
High
Clinical Center requires joint leadership with Institutes or other NIH components to launch and implement the initiative.
