Pharmacovigilance

Safety obligations do not pause for a resource gap.

Case processing, aggregate reporting, signal review and risk management planning, from first clinical exposure through approval and beyond.

The problem

Pharmacovigilance is the one function where falling behind is immediately reportable.

Most functions can absorb a bad month. Safety cannot. Expedited reporting timelines are fixed, they run from the day of awareness, and a backlog is not an internal problem, it is a compliance finding waiting to be documented.

Volume is also unpredictable in exactly the way headcount planning is not. A safety signal, a label change or a launch can multiply case volume in a quarter, and hiring cycles do not move at that speed.

Which makes this the clearest case for flexible capacity in the whole sector: trained people who can be added when volume moves and released when it settles.

04

Signal detection

06

Literature monitoring

Screening and assessment on a defined, auditable schedule.

Questions

Questions we get asked.

Can you handle a backlog?

Yes, and it is a common reason clients call. It starts with an honest assessment of the backlog size and reportability exposure before anyone touches a case.

Which safety databases do you work with?

The major commercial systems used across the industry. We screen for the specific platform you run rather than assuming transferability.

Can you scale up and back down?

That is the point of the model. Contract structures let capacity come off cleanly when volume settles.

Do you provide medical review?

Yes, PV physicians and medical reviewers, though these are scarcer profiles and take longer to place.

Onshore or offshore?

Case processing is often delivered offshore with onshore oversight and medical review. We will be explicit about which parts sit where.
