Cost of Manual Work — Pharmaceuticals

See what repetitive manual work is costing Pharmaceuticals teams each year — where clinical trial recruitment runs 30-50% behind plan; site activation takes 8-12 months and patient screening is manual chart review.

What this means for Pharmaceuticals

  • Clinical trial recruitment runs 30-50% behind plan; site activation takes 8-12 months and patient screening is manual chart review.
  • Regulatory submissions (NDA, BLA, MAA) are coordinated across dozens of CROs, sites, and writers via SharePoint and version-numbered Word documents.
  • Pharmacovigilance case intake is drowning in adverse-event reports; medical reviewers spend nights triaging individual case safety reports.

Where it pays to act

  • Trial recruitment acceleration — AI screening of EMR and claims data to identify eligible patients.
  • Regulatory submission drafting and consistency checking with LLM-assisted authoring.
