PCMG
MEETING - JANUARY 2005
The
Pharmaceutical Contract Management Group (PCMG) is a professionally
constituted body dedicated to optimising the outsourcing performance
of its members and their companies. The PCMG holds a number of
seminars for its members throughout the year; the seminars provide
fantastic opportunities for knowledge sharing for outsourcing
professionals, as well as plenty of time for informal networking
and discussions.
ORION was pleased to sponsor the first PCMG meeting of 2005,
which was held in London on the 18th January. The theme of the
meeting was CRO Evaluation. The agenda included a variety of
talks from representatives of the PCMG member companies, as well
as ORION.
ORION’s representatives Peter MacLennan, Director of Project
Development, and Elena Smith, Director of Project Management
gave talks on ‘CRO Selection from the CRO Perspective’ and ‘Team
Building Between the Sponsor and the CRO’ respectively.
The meeting provided the ideal forum in which to discuss the
most effective ways in which to evaluate CROs, and it was clearly
beneficial to have opinions from both sides of the fence!
