West Lafayette, Ind. – SSCI, part of AMRI’s Global Analytical Services, formally introduces its flexible scientist program (FSP) – a flexible business approach similar to a full-time equivalent program – that offers volume-based, preferred-rate pricing. The FSP, which combines SSCI’s extensive project-based analytical and solid-state chemistry services and expertise with flexible extended research services support for customers’ projects, is now being offered to all clients without limitation to the analytical and solid-state chemistry services offered.
“The FSP helps our customers accelerate new project start-ups, reduce timelines and improve flexibility with managing project scope and proposals in order to save on contract-execution time,” said David A. Engers, Ph.D., general manager at SSCI. “We believe offering this approach more broadly will reduce administrative burden and timelines and allow customers to allocate more of their time and resources toward solving their most technically challenging problems with some of the industry’s most cutting-edge expertise and technologies.”
As an industry leader for analytical and solid-state chemistry services, SSCI has consistently stayed at the forefront of trends and issues related to pharmaceutical analysis. SSCI’s customers can also draw from AMRI’s complete suite of best-in-class, customized solutions that span early discovery and development through scale-up to commercial manufacturing. Recent technological enhancements at SSCI include the addition of a Rigaku Oxford Diffraction SuperNova diffractometer to deliver rapid single crystal structure solution, and a Bruker maXis-Plus Q-TOF mass spectrometer to enhance analysis of small and large molecules, including biologic drugs, metabolites and polymers to meet the expectations outlined in the ICH Q6B Specifications. As part of AMRI, SSCI’s capabilities also include a wide range of additional capabilities, including the ability to support schedules I-V controlled substances.
