Client: Major global pharmaceutical company
Engagement: For more than 20 years

Challenge
Our client sought to reduce operational overhead and improve the effectiveness of the discovery phase in their R&D process. They faced challenges related to continuity of service (CoS), specialized clinical IT staffing, and risks associated with talent turnover. Additionally, co-employment concerns limited flexibility in managing external resources, creating potential gaps in critical functions.

  • Ensured continuity of service for mission-critical projects

  • Reduced risk associated with staff turnover and loss of institutional knowledge

  • Addressed co-employment considerations while maintaining compliance

  • Supported seamless project execution across multiple therapeutic areas

Impact
The CoS model has delivered measurable benefits over the course of the partnership:

  • Sustained operational efficiency and effectiveness in the discovery phase

  • Minimized risk of service disruption due to staff transitions

  • Enhanced collaboration between PSCI and our client’s teams through integrated resourcing

  • Provided a flexible, scalable solution adaptable to evolving R&D needs

PSCI’s long-term partnership with our client underscores its ability to deliver sustainable, risk-mitigated solutions that support critical clinical and project management functions. The CoS model continues to provide consistent, high-quality service today, reflecting PSCI’s commitment to operational excellence and strategic client support.
