Enabling CDMO Success Through
Intelligent Testing Capabilities
C
ontract design and manufacturing organizations
(CDMOs) play an increasingly crucial role in the
pharmaceutical supply chain, providing the necessary
capabilities and capacity to meet growing patient
demand. The recent emergence of GLP-1 class
drugs only emphasizes the importance of CDMOs, which contribute
significant expertise related to fill-finish operations, secondary
packaging, and distribution. Understanding their
unique requirements is critical to providing CDMOs with mechanical
testing systems capable of keeping up with their intensifying
pace of business. It is crucial to develop technologies
and solutions that allow CDMOs to remain agile to customer
requirements without sacrificing the reliability necessary for a
production environment.
Across the industry, there are certain features that pharmaceutical
clients look for when partnering with a
CDMO. Three of the primary features include
the manufacturer's capabilities, agility, and
speed of problem resolution. Although
these features are important to all
aspects of the CDMO's business,
examining them through the
lens of mechanical testing
allows us to understand
how CDMOs can create
a more holistic
approach to meeting vendor needs in preparation for becoming
a pharmaceutical partner. Throughout this article, the functional
testing of autoinjectors will be used for GLP-1 class drugs as
an example.
Capability
At first glance, the simplest requirement of a CDMO is that
it has the capabilities to evaluate the key essential performance
requirements (EPRs) of a client's product. From a client's
perspective, the answer is a simple yes or no. However,
