The fastest path to vendor oversight that meets GCP E6(R3)
Packaged consulting for vendor management. Credited against your VendorVigilance subscription when you are ready for software.
The problem we solve
You already know the signals:
Vendor records live in a shared drive nobody can find.
Qualification records are inconsistent between QA, Sourcing, and ClinOps.
You have an inspection coming and you are not sure where the evidence sits.
The vendor software market looks like an eighteen-month project you cannot take on.
You have too much to sort out before software. But you cannot keep waiting.

Diagnose
Map your vendor management maturity and gaps

The software credit
Every pound you spend on the Advisory is creditable against a future VendorVigilance subscription, up to 25% of your annual contract value each year.
Worked example: A £35,000 Design engagement against a £50,000 annual VendorVigilance subscription fully recoups in under three years. Not a sunk cost. A down-payment on the software.

Who this is for
The Advisory programme is for pharmaceutical sponsors, biotech companies, and contract research organisations running GxP-regulated clinical studies. It is designed for the people who carry the weight of vendor oversight:
Quality Assurance teams holding vendor qualification records together with everything else.
Vendor Alliance Management trying to keep strategic partnerships aligned across studies.
Clinical Operations teams overseeing vendors on live studies without a full view of vendor history.
R&D Sourcing running vendor selections against incomplete qualification data.
Executive leadership who need inspection readiness demonstrated, not assembled at the last minute.
If you recognise your team in that list, this is for you.
