Digital Transformation in Pharma Manufacturing: Industry Perspectives Survey

Published on: 

At a critical turning point in the adoption of digital tools across the bio/pharma industry, we want to hear to industry professionals on where things actually stand.

The bio/pharmaceutical manufacturing and development industry is at a critical turning point (1-8). As new modalities move toward commercialization, traditional manufacturing approaches are under intense pressure (5,7-12). At the same time, such technologies as automation, advanced analytics, digital twins, and artificial intelligence are rapidly evolving and promising to transform how medicines are developed, produced, and delivered.

Yet adoption has been uneven. While some organizations are piloting cutting-edge digital tools across their operations, others are still navigating legacy systems, limited resources, or regulatory uncertainty (2-6,10,11,13-18). And even for those further along in the journey, questions remain about integration, workforce readiness, cost, and ultimately, the measurable impact on efficiency, quality, and speed to market (1,2,7,9-12,19-23).

That’s why we’re focusing this survey on digital transformation and technology adoption. We want to understand where the industry truly stands today, what barriers professionals are facing, and what opportunities are most within reach. Your perspective—whether from development, manufacturing, quality, engineering, or regulatory—will help build a clearer picture of the challenges and successes shaping digital change.
