Scientific Functional Outsourcing Solves Sample Management Challenges In Clinical Studies

A major pharmaceutical company faced significant challenges managing the life cycle of its outsourced clinical and preclinical studies, particularly in the aspects of scientific oversight, vendor oversight, and sample management. Internal resources were spread too thin and these constraints were negatively impacting, speed, quality, and employee satisfaction.

The client’s internal analysts were developing assays and transferring them to global laboratories while also juggling the management of vendors and overseeing assay performance. However, without centralized, dedicated oversight, clinical timelines and quality were being challenged.
