What do you need help with?

Answer two short questions to explore relevant support. This is a conversation guide, not a scientific assessment. You can contact DEP at any point.

Scope and delivery

Useful outputs. Clear responsibilities.

What you bring

Available route and process information, characterization and impurity data, prior development reports, material requirements, and the next milestone. Share confidential detail through an agreed process.

What you receive

A prioritized process-development and evidence-gap review; a scoped work plan; appropriate provider options and proposal comparisons; and review points for the agreed development work.

Who does the work

DEP is your point of contact and leads project planning, specialist input, provider selection, and progress review. Process chemistry, analytical, and relevant solid-state experts contribute technical judgment. Qualified providers perform synthesis, process development, testing, and manufacture within their contracted scope.

DEP coordinates planning, scientific review, and delivery; specialist providers perform the laboratory and manufacturing work. Drug substance work can overlap with solid-form, analytical, formulation, and manufacturing needs.
