Case Study: Leading Procurement as the Bridge Through Global Business Transformation to Build a Lean, Cross-Regional Operating Model That Scales From Clinic to Commercial
5:00 pm - Thursday 11th March 2027
- Redesigning the global procurement operating model through mergers, divestitures and a company-wide transformation, so procurement is seen as a value-adding partner rather than a back-office function during constant change
- Embedding procurement into R&D functions at different stages of maturity, from clinical operations and biometrics to medical writing, while sourcing services across APAC and North America in line with regional compliance and data privacy requirements
- Running a lean team across a hub-and-spoke model and a global Phase 2 programme, using market intelligence, category mapping and the right mix of full-service, FSP and sub-vendor CRO models to secure the most competitive resources across regions
