Development team meetings with

Whether to develop in-house or outsource the project, the development team must have strong technical skills combined with strong business knowledge and must interact with users on a regular basis (Chapters 1 and 5). Try to embed a user in the development team if possible. The idea of handing off a requirement document to an outsourcer and expecting a product in 6 months or 1 year that meets user expectations and gets delivered to the users on time simply does not work.

The results of the simulation are reported most importantly to the end users and decision makers. The written report is circulated and a team meeting scheduled. The recommendations and reasoning behind any recommendations and options to the recommendations are made concerning the structure of the simulated study. It is important to keep the report and reporting as simple as possible any presentation with an excessive amount of verbiage or slides is likely to be ignored. The end users and decisions makers will for the most part be interested only in the bottom line of the simulation results. Very often at this point, additional simulations are requested by the clinical development team. 

In the near term, the development team will conclude the Phase 1 work and hold a Stage Gate review meeting with DOE management. Then, work on all aspects of Phase 2 will commence, followed by Phase... 

The objective of this chapter has been to provide the pharmaceutical physician with some appreciation of the complexity of pharmaceutical development. Understanding the vocabulary will help participation in team meetings, where pharmaceutical and clinical development must be coordinated.
