In one instance, it facilitated a large pharmaceutical company's entry into the biosimilar drug market. Initially, the client's focus was on Phase I trials supporting its generics pipeline. With its desire to enter the biosimilars market, Driftpin led the organization through requirements gathering, vendor assessment and selection, and project management of the implementations of a suite to clinical technology systems, including electronic trial master file, clinical data management, and clinical trial management to facilitate all aspects of Phases II, III, and IV trials.Driftpin assisted them by enlisting suppliers in each relevant domain through a pre-selection process and emphasized client requirements during the product demonstration. Following this, it guided them through a scorecard process to gain key stakeholder approval for the chosen vendor in each domain. Driftpin then worked with the selected vendors to implement their systems on a change management schedule that allowed the client to introduce each at an appropriate pace. Through these new implementations, they could successfully progress to phase II and phase III trials.Driftpin has become an emerging player in life science consulting by fusing tactical and practical experience with a strategic viewpoint gathered from numerous projects.
