"Each year, the CMO Leadership Awards recognize the success that individual drug development and manufacturing organizations have in serving the needs of their biotechnology and pharmaceutical customers and partners," said Louis Garguilo, Executive Editor, Life Science Leader magazine and OutsourcedPharma.com. "Recipients are evaluated by executives and managers of the CMO's sponsors, in the 5 critical categories of capabilities, compatibility, expertise, quality, and reliability. An award in any of these categories adds to the distinction and reputation of CMOs within the greater drug discovery, development, manufacturing and marketing industries."

To determine this year's winners, Life Science Leader teamed up with Industry Standard Research (ISR). More than 80 contract manufacturers were considered. The annual awards recognize those contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) that are the most highly rated using an assessment of 26 performance metrics in ISR's annual Contract Manufacturing Quality Benchmarking survey. Respondents include decision-makers at pharma and biopharma companies of all sizes, who evaluate only those companies with which they have worked on an outsourced project within the past 18 months. This level of qualification ensures that survey responses are based on actual involvement with contract manufacturers and clear experiential data.

At PCI Synthesis, we work hard both on the science in the labs and on the relationships across the table with our customers.
