Project Management

Rising costs, regulatory pressure, strict quality control standards, and challenging market competition could hinder your drug development program. DEP faces these hurdles through efficient project management.

Should you want us to handle your program from start to finish, a project manager is assigned to your project, serving as your single point of contact for seamless transactions and communication with the vendors and us.

The project manager is the driver who will steer your project in the right direction while equipped with the best tools, experience, knowledge, skills, and values.

Relationship Builder

Building strong ties with clients and partners is DEP’s priority. Thus, our project manager’s every move is anchored in trust. They treat your project as their own, resulting in openness and transparency. They ensure that communication lines are always open and promote collaboration among the vendors.

The project manager will also connect you to the right people. Biotechs may have the connection with the best providers, but if they can’t get a hold of the right people, opportunities go to waste. DEP’s project managers will liaise between you and the right people for a specific job - the plant general manager, the head of regulatory, and the top-notch partners.

Early Starter

At the start of the program, your project manager will hit the ground running. To understand the path to take, they will conduct an upfront analysis that includes every project aspect, such as formulation, packaging, and other specifications.

Management processes, techniques, methods, and tools will be developed and implemented throughout the project to keep the development within the timeline and budget. Similarly, a carefully planned approach is designed for all development phases.

Well-Versed in Technology Systems

Software solutions are necessary for keeping track of a project’s progress. Your project manager is proficient in such technology systems, including the commonly used Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software programs.

ERP tools allow your project manager to collect and collate data, calculate essential project resources, track costs, and monitor the different stages by dividing the entire project into phases. Having this set of information will keep you in the loop.

Effective Communicator

Collaboration is key to a drug development’s success. Your project manager maintains an open communication line and sets regular meetings to ensure everybody is on the same page. Reports are also shared on centralized platforms accessible to relevant parties and individuals, while traceable documentation creates seamless communication.

Crisis Manager

Producing a drug and bringing it to the market is a risky journey. Your project manager is trained in crisis management to minimize risks and prepare an emergency response plan. Through a comprehensive plan, they can control situations and ease the impact of unexpected problems that could arise.

DEP’s project management is a critical part of our system. However, if you already have a CMC expert that you want to handle your project, we can assist at their discretion.
