About CRO
Organizations that support outsourced research services for the Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology, and Medical Devices industries are called CROs. The nature of engagement of outsourced services is generally on contractual basis. This helps the vendors to control their R&D expenditure and concentrate on their core skills. CROs help vendors expand their capacities from clinical trials to healthcare regulatory submissions, biostatistics, and data management work. Furthermore, CROs have also started offering services at all phases (pre-clinical, phase I, phases II & IIIa, phases IIIb & IV, labs, and others) of drug development and discovery. CROs have built their capabilities from the earliest to the latest stages of drug development with emphasis on partnership, collaboration, and fee for service models.
Technavio's analysts forecast the Global CRO market growth at a CAGR of 9.83 percent over the period 2014-2019.
