As study requirements change, the traditional method for packaging and labeling for clinical supplies does not. Supply chain managers must work within constraints of "traditional" packaging and labeling by incorporating IVRS, campaigns, booklet labels, etc., and continually do more with less.

Presently, adaptive trial design presses the limits of traditional packaging and labeling requiring companies to rethink their processes. The time has come for clinical supply chain managers to incorporate best practices which include On-Demand packaging and labeling. This program will look at differences between On-Demand and "traditional" packaging and labeling, and the impact of enabling On-Demand. This is the first program on On-Demand packaging and labeling for clinical supplies offered by ISPE.
