PDP is a global specialist clinical trial courier solely dedicated to the life science sectors. With over 20 years' experience, their express distribution service specializes in mitigating supply chain risk and offers proactive and predictive interaction when transporting clients' valuable, time and temperature critical shipments to challenging geographies. 'Quality', so demanded by life science professionals, is also at the heart of PDP's business model, reflected in global ISO accreditation, a standard to which all the network offices work too.

PDP Quality Manager, Susan Lewis says - "We recognize the importance of 'Good Distribution Practice' and we test our Quality and performance by Global ISO standards, measuring our services in hours not days. We understand that clients require a proactive 24/7 response and that patients ultimately reside at the end of a sometimes complex supply chain and therefore the trust they put in us requires us to never let them down."

PDP offer Clinical Trial Project Managers, Central Laboratories, Logistics Consultants and Healthcare Professionals time critical and temperature sensitive shipment solutions for pre-clinical trials and phase I - IV clinical trial supplies. Todd Myers has recently been appointed Senior Vice President and General Manager of PDP in the US and considers PDP as a strategic specialist partner that can deliver and generate significant results for US customers.

Todd says - "We recognize our clients need for expertise, reliability, proactivity, reach, cost effectiveness and the tailored and flexible solutions that will mitigate the risks inherently found in some standardized clinical trials logistics networks. Much of our global team has been developed from within our Company, enhanced by industry experienced professionals from our niche competitors and as an FCPA compliant business, our customers can place great trust in PDP to meet their global clinical trial logistic objectives."

PDP continues to invest heavily in its integrated worldwide operation with wholly owned offices and fully trained, bilingual staff in all key continents and emerging markets using intimate local knowledge to benefit customers' needs. Management teams are able to help clients with complex international, local regulatory authority and customs import and export regulations, areas which demand local knowledge and can prevent shipment delays. The US operation represents a significant investment which has seen a shift in key account management of all US centric clients away from the UK.

Clive Bryant, PDP's Sales and Marketing Director says "Our customers value PDP's flexible and consultative approach, understanding that the word 'Specialized' does not have to mean one size fits all, when applying a solution to a complex shipping need. We have built a world-renowned reputation with pharma, biotech, CROs, central labs, and clinical trial supply customers for our proven ability as a focused life science logistics specialist. We are both experienced and knowledgeable of every aspect of the supply chain and able to react and respond to the very specific global challenges of clinical trial logistics and clinical research materials handling".

As the demanding life science sector grows and looks to emerging markets, it's keen to find efficiencies balanced with engaging suppliers who are specialists in their field. PDP have built both the network capacity and a highly trained workforce to deliver these services to clients where time, temperature and regulatory compliance are mission critical.
