520 3 |a In recent years pharmaceutical companies have implemented Operational Excellence (OpEx) in their R&D organizations to improve productivity but had only limited success. Practitioners and management start to question the effectiveness of process-focused improvement methodologies.

We recommend a balanced approach by integrating process management with organization’s project management capability in order to better engage the stakeholders and deliver both short-term results and long-term improvement.
