As the consortium grew and additional institutional resources were committed to the program, we were encouraged by institutional leaders to further solidify and formalize inter-institutional license agreements. Vanderbilt’s technology transfer office assisted in creating a more sophisticated end-user license agreement (EULA) for use in on-boarding new sites. Eligible organizations could join the REDCap Consortium (and download the REDCap source code) by agreeing to the terms with Vanderbilt University. The paper EULA documents required signature by institutional officials on both sides, which introduced a two-to-three-week administrative turnaround time for joining the Consortium. A public website was created to let new potential partner sites know about the platform and consortium model (https://projectredcap.org).
