A business that provides services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, research, university, and government sectors under contract is known as a contract research organization (CRO). These services include biopharmaceutical research and development, biological assay development, product commercialization, clinical development, clinical trial operation and management, and real-world evidence. Contract research organizations and services firms also handle other important areas such as data administration, regulatory relations, and quality assurance.

Contract Research Organizations Services help reduce costs for companies that are developing new medicines and drugs in niche markets, and allow manufacturers to ease their entry into existing drug markets, as well as simplify the overall development and approval process. Collaborating with Contract Research Organizations Services cancels the need for big pharma companies to handle all aspects of product development and marketing in-house by hiring the necessary professionals, which is otherwise a lengthy, labor-intensive process.
