How It Works

What is the N-SIDE Suite?

The N-SIDE Suite is a game-changing SaaS platform supported by a team of industry-leading experts.

This centralized platform powers the clinical supply chain, supporting strategic decision making, operations, and enhanced monitoring at both the trial and program levels. This is possible thanks to advanced optimization algorithms and forecasting techniques facilitated by secure APIs.

Pharma companies of all sizes use the N-SIDE Suite to avoid bottlenecks in the clinical supply chain, minimize waste, control costs, reduce time-to-market, speed up the initiation of new trials, manage production plans, and monitor supply chain strategy for ongoing trials.

“In a VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) world, simulations and forecasting are creating a tactical clinical supply chain, ensuring that each patient gets their medication on time.”

The N-SIDE Suite is an end-to-end solution consisting of the Supply App for risk-based clinical supply optimization, the Production App for building and maintaining an optimal manufacturing strategy, and a comprehensive slate of expert services.

The N-SIDE Suite supports any clinical program, regardless of size or complexity.

Optimize and Forecast

Find optimal strategies for packaging, sourcing, depot resupply, and more. Adapt your supply and manufacturing plans based on real-time data.

Minimize waste

Reduce drug waste using risk-based optimization to plan your supply strategy and safely decrease overage by ~40%.

Stay ahead

Through robust models, reliable monitoring, and expert services, N-SIDE helps you stay ahead of the inevitable uncertainties of your trials so you can shift your focus to more high-value activities.

Accelerate innovation

Use the N-SIDE Suite to reduce the time to market of your products by optimizing all aspects of the supply chain and eliminating bottlenecks.

Communicate efficiently

Get all stakeholders involved in a trial or clinical program on the same page by providing facts to support decisions and ensuring alignment between the clinical vision and the supply implementation.

SUPPLY APP

Achieve true clinical trial supply optimization.

The N-SIDE Supply App is the only solution that adds a risk-based optimization approach to clinical supply forecasting.

The Supply App helps pharma companies optimize their supply chains throughout the trial lifecycle. Make data-driven decisions about overage, packaging, sourcing, IRT setup, depot shipments,

and more, all while measuring the precise impact of these decisions on patient service level and budgets.

With over 10,000 trials optimized and counting, the Supply App can be used to design and optimize any trial of any size and complexity.

OUTCOMES

20-50% overall cost savings
20-40% cost reduction of comparator sourcing
Improved cross-departmental communication
20-60% drug waste reduction
100% patient service level
Reduced stress
0 trials on pause due to a drug shortage

PRODUCTION APP

Optimize end-to-end production planning from DS to IMP.

The N-SIDE Production App gives you unprecedented flexibility to optimize manufacturing for your clinical projects, from drug substance (DS) to drug product (DP) to investigational medicinal product (IMP).

Use the Production App to build and maintain an optimal clinical production plan that accounts for your specific constraints. Respond quickly and efficiently to unexpected changes with what-if scenarios.

The Production App enables data-driven decision making and enhanced communication between teams for each project in your portfolio.

More than a software product, the Production App is supported by expert services from the leading minds in clinical supply chain optimization.
