Opportunities
The world market for pharmaceutical contract research
and manufacturing services (PCRAMS) is set to grow by
an average of 13.6% a year to 2017, by which time it
will be worth $136 billion, up from $72 billion in 2012,
according to new forecasts

Threats
Emerging countries like East EU, Brazil, India and
soon China will provide low cost products that will
meet cGMPs
The old business model will not sustain growth for
North American and/or EU CMOs
The new business model is more complex and
requires different skills

Technological Challenges
The need to keep pace with next-generation
process technology is challenging
In the case of many emerging pharmaceutical
products, the challenge is to make viable
commercial production possible
CMOs need to invest in technology and people
cGMPCompliance
Documentation
New projects start at pre-clinical stage
Process is improved along the way
Batches are made for development, scale-up, stability,
clinical trials and process validation
PAI may occur years later
Good documentation practices must be followed at all
times (even if clients do not request it explicitly)
Project Management
Conclusion
Contract Manufacturing Organisations will have to
adapt to a new business environment
Successful CMOs will be the ones with the strongest
technical staff capable of participating in
multidisciplinary project teams
