 CDMOs Recognized for Service and Leadership 

Pharma and biotech customers select service providers for excellence in capabilities, expertise, quality, compatibility, reliability, and service

 

Cranberry, PA (March 1, 2022) – Life Science Leader and Outsourced Pharma today announced the winners of the 2022 CMO Leadership Awards, an honor that spotlights excellence in Capabilities, Expertise, Quality, Compatibility, Reliability, and Service.

“For over a decade, these awards have proven most meaningful for biopharma organizations striving to obtain optimal outcomes from their outsourcing activities,” said Louis Garguilo, Chief Editor and Conference Chair, Outsourced Pharma. “Our research arm, Industry Standard Research (ISR), which only surveys drug sponsors who have worked recently with specific CDMOs, ensures the validity of these results. Our winners will be the champions of outsourcing.”

ISR’s Contract Manufacturing Quality Benchmarking research is conducted annually via an online survey. For the 2022 CMO Awards data, 83 contract manufacturers were evaluated on 23 different performance metrics. Research participants were recruited from biopharmaceutical companies of all sizes and were screened for decision-making influence and authority when it comes to working with contract manufacturing suppliers. Respondents only evaluated companies with which they have worked on an outsourced project within the past 18 months. CMOs can be recognized in six core categories by three groups of respondents–Big Pharma, Small Pharma, and Overall (combined Big and Small Pharma). This respondent breakdown allows readers to see which CMOs score positively by the group that matches their own company. However, if a CMO scores positively by multiple respondent groups in the same core category, they are still recognized as winning only one award in that category.

The CMO Leadership Award accolade is valued among contract manufacturers. Many biopharma organizations employ the winner list when seeking outsourcing partners, especially as they look to overcome pandemic hurdles, supply chain challenges, and advancing demands of new platforms and technologies.

“Any industry recognition is great, but this award is particularly significant because the recognition is based on customer feedback,” explained Stuart Needleman, CCO, Chief Patient Centricity Officer, at Piramal Pharma Solutions. “The fact that our business partners are recognizing us for excellence in capabilities, compatibility, expertise, quality, and reliability shows that our efforts to be customer-centric are paying dividends.”
