In today’s complex drug development landscape—characterized by multi-site global networks and multiple CDMOs—effective project management is essential. Silke Erbeck emphasizes that CDMOs should streamline processes by providing a single point of contact, clear project governance, and consistent communication across geographies. Early establishment of roles and responsibilities, formal milestones, and risk mitigation planning helps biotech sponsors avoid misalignment and delays. She also highlights that centralized coordination enables integrated supply chain oversight, ensuring alignment between sponsors and service providers, while active collaboration between internal and external teams ensures development efficiency and quality.
