Various end-users such as pharmaceutical, and biotechnology companies, are adopting pharmacovigilance and drug safety software for cost reduction and minimizing operational expenses by gradually shifting from being fully integrated pharmaceutical companies to sharing costs by collaborating with service providers. Outsourcing helps increase internal resource flexibility, improves timelines, and results in better outcomes in the short as well as long term. Outsourcing also helps achieve better pharmacovigilance (PV) through regulatory compliance, higher quality, better productivity, and improved strategic outcomes. This is expected to fuel market growth.
Pharmacovigilance and drug safety software vendors, in an attempt to ensure sustainability, are providing customized and end-to-end solutions to meet consumer needs. These vendors are also incorporating integrated technologies such as electronic data capture, AI, and interoperability, among others to enhance their offerings. Moreover, the combined pressures of volume, cost, and heightened demand for analytics are propelling industry stakeholders to adopt advanced technology to support their pharmacovigilance activities. Also, the fact that service providers are now operating via a flexible and variable pricing structure and achieving operational excellence through constant product updates is expected to boost usage rates over the forecast period.
