Compound & Assay Management Systems
Business Problem
Client recognized that systems supporting small molecule drug discovery were reaching a critical state due to uncoordinated investment, stagnation, and technology sprawl. There was limited engagement between IT and the functional areas. With new senior management across IT and the scientific organization, client recognized a need for new working ways and systems landscape to support the evolving needs of the business stakeholders.
