With the increased globalisation and complexity of the pharmaceutical supply chain, managing the sourcing of materials has become extremely challenging. Reducing time and costs are important goals of sourcing, but increased regulations and more rigorous enforcement make these goals difficult to achieve.
Pharmaceutical drug product development can be an expensive and time-consuming process. Many challenges are faced by pharmaceutical development companies including developing a scaleable, marketable formulation, ensuring safety and efficacy of the drug product and receiving approval of the drug product by regulatory agencies.
