Waging a War on Clinical Supply Waste — 9:30 a.m. – 10:15 a.m. PDT
Industry reports confirm that over 60% of products and supplies in clinical trials are wasted. These warriors will analyze the reasons for the waste which boil down to business processes, systems driving supply chain, assumptions, and the collaboration among stakeholders, organizational structures, and communication networks. Analysis of “war stories” will lead to strategies and specific steps that can be taken by practitioners.
