# Coadun

> Coadun is a transformation service for Open Source-Enabled Statistical Computing Environments (SCEs), helping pharmaceutical and life sciences organisations migrate from SAS to governed, GxP-ready open-source analytics environments.

Coadun is jointly delivered by Achieve Intelligence (https://www.achieveintelligence.com/) and Jumping Rivers (https://www.jumpingrivers.com/). It is not a software platform — it is a structured professional service covering the full lifecycle of an enterprise analytics transformation: discovery, design, and deployment.

## What Coadun Does

Coadun helps regulated organisations:

- Unify SAS, R, Python and Posit (formerly RStudio) into a single governed operating model
- Address compliance and validation concerns when adopting open-source tools in GxP settings
- Design and implement a risk-based validation strategy for R and Python packages
- Migrate legacy SAS code to R and Python at a sustainable pace
- Onboard and upskill internal teams, not just install infrastructure
- Resolve fragmented tooling, siloed workflows, and reproducibility gaps

## Who It Is For

- Pharmaceutical and life sciences companies
- Mid-to-large enterprises with established SAS environments
- Regulated industries with GxP and governance requirements
- Organisations facing audit pressure, reproducibility gaps, or growing demand for R and Python

## The Coadun Service Model

The service is structured across three phases:

1. **Discover** — Current-state assessment, stakeholder interviews, governance review, infrastructure evaluation, and migration roadmap development.
2. **Design** — Environment architecture, integration specifications for legacy and modern systems, SAS-to-R/Python transition planning.
3. **Deploy** — Prototype environment build, package governance, SOP and validation documentation, user onboarding and upskilling.

Beyond deployment, Coadun also provides long-term support, targeted training, R/Python package development and qualification, and ongoing SAS migration.

## Delivered By

- **Achieve Intelligence** — Enterprise architecture and compliance strategy expertise.
- **Jumping Rivers** — Open-source engineering and R/Python expertise.

Together they provide the combined skillset that organisations typically lack internally during significant SCE migrations.

## Key Concepts

- **SCE** (Statistical Computing Environment): An enterprise analytics environment supporting regulated and non-regulated statistical workflows.
- **GxP**: A collection of quality guidelines and regulations covering pharmaceutical manufacturing, laboratory, and clinical practices.
- **Open source adoption in pharma**: The shift from proprietary tools (primarily SAS) to R, Python and the Posit ecosystem for statistical analysis and reporting in regulated industries.
