Benchmarking Intelligence
Understand Industry Standards & Gain Competitive Advantage
Access industry benchmarks for scale-up, throughput, CDMO client service, and problem-solving capabilities. Understand what your clients and regulatory inspectors expect—and turn reliability into a competitive advantage.
The Benchmarking Gap
Most pharmaceutical manufacturers operate without context—unable to determine if their performance is competitive, acceptable, or falling behind industry standards.
No Context for Performance
You don't know if your batch success rates, disposition cycle times, or deviation backlogs are normal or alarming compared to industry standards.
Unclear Client Expectations
Your CDMO clients expect certain service levels, but you're not sure what's competitive or what regulatory inspectors consider acceptable.
Blind to Competitive Gaps
You suspect competitors are outperforming you, but you lack the data to understand where you're falling behind and by how much.
What We Benchmark
Our benchmarking intelligence spans the critical areas that determine pharmaceutical manufacturing competitiveness and client satisfaction.
Scale-Up Performance
Understand industry standards for clinical-to-commercial scale-up timelines, success rates, and the typical constraints that slow progress.
Benchmark Insights:
- Typical scale-up timelines by product type
- Success rates and common failure modes
- Resource requirements and staffing levels
- Technology transfer best practices
Throughput & Batch Flow
Compare your batch success rates, disposition cycle times, and manufacturing throughput against industry benchmarks.
Benchmark Insights:
- Batch success rates by product complexity
- Disposition pipeline cycle times
- Hold time distributions and aging trends
- Capacity utilization standards
CDMO Client Service
Understand what innovators expect from their CDMO partners—communication frequency, transparency, and responsiveness standards.
Benchmark Insights:
- Client communication cadence expectations
- Transparency and reporting standards
- Issue escalation and resolution timelines
- Partnership maturity indicators
Problem-Solving Capabilities
Benchmark your deviation investigation quality, root cause analysis depth, and CAPA effectiveness against industry standards.
Benchmark Insights:
- Investigation cycle time benchmarks
- Root cause analysis quality standards
- CAPA effectiveness and recurrence rates
- Continuous improvement culture indicators
How Benchmarking Intelligence Works
We work with multiple clients across pharmaceutical manufacturing—giving us unique visibility into industry standards while keeping your data private and secure.
Private & Secure Data
Your data is private and safe. We never share client-specific information. Our benchmarking intelligence is aggregated and anonymized across multiple engagements.
Industry Standards Visibility
We work with multiple clients across CDMOs, biopharma sites, and advanced therapy manufacturers—giving us unique visibility into what's standard in the industry.
Contextualized Insights
We don't just show you numbers. We provide context—explaining what your clients and regulatory inspectors expect, and where you need to focus improvement efforts.
Competitive Advantage
Our benchmarking insights give you and your team an advantage over the competition by understanding performance gaps and prioritizing improvements that matter most.
Your Data is Private & Safe:
Although your data is private and safe, we have visibility to what is standard in the industry for scale-up, throughput, CDMO client service, and problem-solving capabilities. Our benchmarking insight can give you and your team an advantage over the competition by understanding what your clients and regulatory inspectors expect.
Reliability as a Competitive Advantage
Benchmarking intelligence gives you context for performance, clarity on client expectations, and the ability to turn operational reliability into a competitive differentiator that wins and retains clients.
Understand What's Normal
Stop guessing whether your performance is acceptable. Our benchmarks provide context for your batch success rates, cycle times, and operational metrics.
Meet Client Expectations
Understand what your CDMO clients expect for communication, transparency, and service levels—ensuring you deliver competitive partnership value.
Prioritize Improvements
Focus improvement efforts on the gaps that matter most—where you're falling behind industry standards or where clients have the highest expectations.
Reliability as a Competitive Advantage
Transform operational reliability from a baseline requirement into a competitive differentiator—demonstrating predictable performance that wins and retains clients.
What Makes Our Benchmarking Different
We're not a data vendor selling generic industry reports. Our benchmarking intelligence comes from active engagements with pharmaceutical manufacturers—providing current, relevant insights.
Multi-Client Visibility
We work with multiple pharmaceutical manufacturers—giving us unique visibility into industry standards that individual companies can't access.
Internal Network Benchmarking
Through BatchTrak™, we demonstrate internal benchmarking data across your sites and network—allowing best practices to become visible and repeatable.
Private & Secure
Your data is never shared. All benchmarking intelligence is aggregated and anonymized—protecting your competitive information while providing valuable context.
Actionable, Not Just Data
We don't just deliver benchmark reports. We use these insights to design improvement roadmaps that address the gaps that matter most to your clients and regulators.
Continuously Updated
Our benchmarks evolve as we work with more clients—ensuring you have access to current industry standards, not outdated data.
Our Promise:
We don't just deliver benchmark reports. We use these insights to design improvement roadmaps that address the gaps that matter most to your clients and regulators—transforming operational reliability from a baseline requirement into a competitive advantage that differentiates you in the market.
