Executive Summary
PPD is setting up a new central laboratory services unit in Singapore to meet what it says is growing demand from regional clients. The new facility is scheduled to begin operations in the middle of next year and will provide a variety of customised services in line with those at other similar centres in the US, Europe and China. It will reduce sample processing times and costs for customers in Asia and be linked to PPD's global online system, the US-based contract research organisation notes. The company already offers various clinical development and regulatory services through its Singapore office.
