Adapting Compound Management Systems to a Changing Business Model. 

Abstract:

If your business model changed from internal drug discovery to contract research how long would it take to convert your processes and systems to support customer driven orders and the inherent flexibility required?  Amphora underwent this change in 2006 and was able to convert its compound management systems with minimal change and no additional hardware.  The underlying modular design and changes will be discussed.
