A Singapore-based biotechnology business creating innovative cell treatments for cancer therapy was expanding from clinical to commercial operations. Their former IT systems lacked the adaptability and compliance tools required for this new stage. They required a smart ERP system that could enable GxP-compliant manufacturing, worldwide procurement, and investor openness as they were ready for commercial supply chain growth and worldwide regulatory clearances.
