You Need On-time and On‑Budget Drug Development
Because the costs of drug development continue to climb, you have to work fast. The pressure is on to develop safe, effective drugs quickly. Mistakes cause delays. With each delay, you’re less likely to recover costs and make a profit.
The solution is a digital quality management system (QMS) that helps accelerate the drug development cycle.
You Can’t Afford Data Integrity Issues
Data issues risk your reputation. Just ask one of the many pharma companies that recently made headlines because their data was inaccurate. You don’t want that kind of publicity. Negative press coverage almost guarantees you’ll lose the trust of your customers.
Regulators are focused on quality data, and you should be, too. If you aren’t prioritizing data, you not only risk your reputation, but you jeopardize compliance as well. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has stressed time and again that accurate data is critical to the development and approval of drugs. And yet, one of the top reasons for warning letters in the pharma industry continues to be incomplete/inaccurate data.
A digital QMS isn’t optional. With a digital QMS, meet the FDA’s expectations that your pharma company will focus on quality data throughout the product life cycle – from new drug research through post-market safety monitoring.
