Cell and gene therapy manufacturing, CDMO and vein-to-vein logistics assessment

Which manufacturing model and CDMO fit a cell or gene therapy programme, how reliable the vein-to-vein chain is, and how stable the provider's leadership is.

What you receive

  • A written report that answers the questions agreed at scoping, with a clear verdict on each
  • The read from the leaders running these businesses, gathered through our search work and attributed by role
  • A data workbook with the underlying tables, so your team can filter, check and reuse the work
  • A source register with the source and date behind each key fact

What can be in scope

  • Manufacturing models: autologous and allogeneic, in-house and outsourced
  • CDMO options by tier, capability and capacity
  • Release, analytical and potency readiness
  • Vein-to-vein logistics for the programme's markets
  • Leadership stability across shortlisted providers

In cell and gene therapy the constraint has moved from steel to release and to people. Vector capacity can sit idle while fill-finish, potency assays and qualified leaders run short, and an autologous product depends on a chain of collection, courier, manufacture and return that no single quality system owns.

This assessment looks at manufacturing models, CDMO options, logistics and the stability of the teams behind them, scoped to a programme, a provider or an investment.

Who commissions it

  • Developers choosing or changing a manufacturing partner
  • Investors diligencing a CGT company or a CGT CDMO
  • Partnering and corporate development teams
  • Operations leaders planning a move to commercial supply

The questions it answers

  1. Which manufacturing model and CDMO tier fit the programme, from clinical supply to commercial scale?
  2. Is the binding constraint capacity, or release: assays, potency, vector analytics and the people who run them?
  3. Where does the vein-to-vein chain break: temperature, chain of custody, scheduling or cross-border release?
  4. How stable is a provider's site leadership, and what does turnover mean for a client programme?
  5. Which diligence questions apply to a CGT partner today that did not two years ago?
