Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Pharma Procurement: The Cross-Functional Framework That Prevents Project Failures
Q: How do you approach negotiation strategically and what does a true win-win negotiation look like in pharma outsourcing?
Holt suggests that negotiation should be treated as a means to building an ongoing partnership rather than a final end, fostering collaboration to make the relationship mutually beneficial.
Pharma Procurement: The Cross-Functional Framework That Prevents Project Failures
Q: What are the biggest mistakes you see pharma companies make in this process?
Holt highlights common mistakes, including jumping straight to pricing without exploring capabilities first or providing either too little or too much information in RFX processes, affecting clarity and understanding.
Pharma Procurement: The Cross-Functional Framework That Prevents Project Failures
Q: What are the essential steps that you need to set everything up for success?
Holt advises starting with a clear strategy of what you're trying to achieve, followed by developing a detailed scope of work that includes specific needs and clear limitations on what's included and excluded.
Pharma Procurement: The Cross-Functional Framework That Prevents Project Failures
Q: Why is this siloed approach so dangerous?
Holt explains that a siloed procurement approach can lead to project overruns, budget overruns, and potentially costly project failures, as seen in a case where a CDMO was selected solely based on the speed of commencement, ignoring other crucial considerations.
Pharma Procurement: The Cross-Functional Framework That Prevents Project Failures
Q: Can you tell me then what initially drew you to this space, pharma, procurement and outsourcing?
Matthew Holt shares that his journey into procurement was partly influenced by family ties, as his father and grandfather both worked in procurement. He initially studied economics but transitioned into pharmaceutical supply planning due to job market conditions at the time of graduation.
