New Systems Enable Innovation in Clinical Trial Supplies and Design

A clinical trial supply chain is more than just logistics. As many biopharmaceutical firms are expanding their operations across the globe, various elements of the trial may experience differences based on local regulations and infrastructure. Planning and management of clinical trial supplies is a complex task. Various factors such as regulatory compliance, temperature sensitivity, and drug safety and security have a considerable impact on costs and timelines of a study. Due to this, sponsors and clinical research organizations (CROs) have started focusing on clinical trial supply management.

Agile IRT/RTSM System for Supply Managers

By way of products and services, the market comprises manufacturing, supply chain management, and storage and distribution. Supply chain management is considered to be the leading segment thanks to advancement in technology and need to control R&D costs.
