Abstract Details

2016, Master of Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, Biology.
Diabetes is a global health issue that threatens millions of lives. Thermalin Diabetes, LLC is striving to commercialize new types of insulins that fulfil unmet market needs for both Type I and Type II diabetes patients. However, as a small pharmaceutical company, Thermalin Diabetes faces obstacles operationally and financially due to its size and limited funding sources. As Thermalin is exploring the option of outsourcing its production activities, it is challenging to allocate the right amount of capital while still trying to mitigate the risks at a minimum level. In this thesis, I will analyze different risks associated with outsourcing in the pharmaceutical industry as well as an internal and external cost analysis to evaluate the cost efficiency for Thermalin. Ultimately, a structured framework will be provided for Thermalin to make strategic decisions on outsourcing.
