How to contextualize and optimize process and batch data exchange between CDMOs and sponsors

Are the biotech and pharma sectors slower to adopt digital technology compared to other industries?  Are they lagging when it comes to extracting value out of data?

The true value of data comes from being able to contextualize it and gain insight from it, rather than just data points

We’ve all experienced the challenge of transferring information across departments: from R&D to development to manufacturing. It’s difficult enough when it’s one facility in one location. The BioPharma industry is continuing to outsource more and more of its manufacturing to CDMOs, adding yet another layer of complexity to critical data exchange like tech transfer.   

And even if all three of your CDMOs have an electronic batch record (EBR) system, those might be three different EBR systems. So how do you deal with extracting, aggregating and harmonizing data that comes in varied formats or languages, from multiple partners? And how do you guarantee that data access is secure and compliant? 

Join our experts from OrganaBio,  Aventior and IDBS to hear their perspectives on contextualizing and optimizing secure data transfer between CDMOs and sponsors. 

Check out the teaser below:

In this session, learn how to:  

  • Collaborate effectively with your external partners 
  • Reduce data silos and contextualize your data 
  • Overcome the challenges arising from a lack of common process terminology and a lack of transparency. 
  • Ensure data can be accessed in a secure and compliant environment

Dominic Mancini

VP, Operations, OrganaBio

Dominic Mancini serves as Vice President of Operations at OrganaBio – a Miami-based Contract Technology Development and Manufacturing Organization (CTDMO) that supports cell and gene therapeutic developers. With a fundamental commitment to providing access to critical resources essential for therapeutic development, OrganaBio recently expanded its reach to Irvine, California. Coupled with a cGMP facility located in Miami, Florida, OrganaBio now provides coast-to-coast, hands-on expertise with customizable products and services for BioPharma and research organizations across the world. This bi-coastal presence helps our partners to further reduce manufacturing costs and timelines, ethically accelerating the development and commercialization of their cell-based therapies.

Prior to OrganaBio, Dominic spent eight years at Bluebird Bio as the company grew from 45 to 1200+ employees and from one clinical asset to a robust commercial pipeline. Dominic worked closely with the Aventior and IDBS teams to support late-stage commercial assets at Bluebird Bio.
