Do you know what situation your peers’ businesses are in, and what they’re working to? To find out just that, IQPC polled their network of pharmaceutical serialization professionals and got responses from representatives of over 20 companies.
The results? Most find data storage and management to be their biggest issue, citing ERP systems as some of their biggest investments in 2016 and going forward. It follows that over 50% of those we polled are either implementing their strategies in multiple sites or already done and thinking beyond compliance.
IQPC also asked about their biggest inhibitors, their current and future budgets, and their experience with international compliance.
