Clinical Supply Optimization: Enhanced Service Model Saves Client Time On Supplies

Enhanced Service Model Saves Client Time on Supplies

The Vice President of manufacturing for a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company faced an avalanche of work when a reorganization left him without a clinical supply manager. Planning to start 5 new clinical trials in 6 months while managing quality assurance, manufacturing, and supplies for new and ongoing studies, he turned to his Fisher Clinical Services account executive with a simple question: “How am I going to do all that?”

Though the manufacturing VP had worked with Fisher Clinical Services before, this was the first time the vendor’s Clinical Supply Optimization service came up as an option. Designed to handle supply forecasting, demand planning, and other high level supply chain management functions, this service appeared to fit the company’s immediate need and he agreed to proceed.
