Apex Pharma
FTE/FFS
At Apex Pharma, we offer FTE (Full-Time Equivalent) and FFS (Fee-For-Service) services designed to provide flexible, scalable, and efficient solutions to our clients in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. These services are tailored to meet the specific needs of organizations, whether you require dedicated resources for long-term projects or need expert support for one-time tasks.
We understand that each client has unique requirements, and our FTE and FFS offerings allow us to provide the right level of support and expertise for your drug development, manufacturing, and research activities. Our team of scientists, project managers, and industry experts work closely with clients to ensure that projects are executed with precision, efficiency, and high-quality outcomes.
Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) Services
FTE Services at Apex Pharma involve providing dedicated personnel to work on specific projects or support ongoing business activities within the client's organization. These resources are fully integrated into the client’s team and work under their direction, but are managed and employed by Apex Pharma. This model is ideal for clients who require a consistent, long-term presence for specific projects, research, or ongoing development needs.
Key Benefits of FTE Services:
Dedicated Expertise: Clients gain access to highly skilled professionals who are fully committed to their projects and integrated into their teams. Our experts in areas such as drug discovery, formulation development, clinical trials, and regulatory affairs bring years of specialized experience.
Scalable Support: The FTE model offers flexibility in terms of resource scaling, allowing clients to increase or decrease the number of resources as project requirements evolve.
Cost Efficiency: Rather than hiring full-time employees or outsourcing to multiple vendors, the FTE model enables clients to have access to top-tier talent on a cost-effective basis.
Long-Term Collaboration: With FTE, clients can build long-term, consistent relationships with our team members, ensuring continuity and stability throughout the project.
Project Management and Oversight: Apex Pharma manages the recruitment, training, and performance monitoring of the assigned team members, ensuring they meet the client’s expectations.
Areas of Expertise for FTE Services:
Drug Discovery & Development: Full-time scientists specializing in various therapeutic areas, including oncology, neurology, infectious diseases, and more.

Manufacturing Support: Technical experts and engineers supporting scale-up, process optimization, and GMP-compliant production processes.
Project Management: Project managers dedicated to overseeing timelines, budgets, and resources to ensure project milestones are achieved on time.
Fee-For-Service (FFS) Services
FFS Services at Apex Pharma are designed to provide clients with targeted expertise and support for specific tasks, milestones, or short-term projects. Under the FFS model, clients are billed for the services provided based on the scope of work, with predefined fees for specific deliverables or activities. This model is particularly beneficial for clients needing specialized services or a focused intervention for a particular phase of drug development or research
Key Benefits of FFS Services:
Flexibility and Focus: FFS services allow clients to pay for the specific services they need without committing to long-term contracts or the need to allocate full-time resources.
Clear and Transparent Costs: The pricing for each service is clearly defined, enabling clients to manage their budget and align expectations around project costs.
Expert Support for Specialized Tasks: Clients can leverage Apex Pharma’s expertise for specific functions such as formulation development, stability testing, regulatory submissions, or market access strategies.
Rapid Deployment: Since FFS services are task-oriented, they allow for quicker implementation and faster turnaround times, which is ideal for urgent projects or high-priority tasks.
Customized Solutions: We tailor FFS offerings based on client needs, ensuring that the service is focused and results-driven, helping clients to achieve specific milestones or goals.
Formulation Development: Development of solid, liquid, or injectable formulations, including pre-formulation studies, stability testing, and excipient selection.
Analytical Testing and Validation: Offering analytical testing services for raw materials, APIs, finished products, stability studies, and method validation.
Regulatory Support: Regulatory submissions, IND/CTA filing support, regulatory compliance guidance, and preparation of drug dossiers (e.g., NDA, MAA).
Preclinical and Clinical Development Support: Services in GLP toxicology studies, clinical trial management, protocol development, and site monitoring.
Market Access and Commercialization: Strategic market access services, including pricing strategy, reimbursement support, and product launch planning.
Preclinical and Clinical Trial Monitoring: Providing expert oversight and monitoring of preclinical and clinical studies, ensuring protocol adherence and data integrity.
