As  technologies  mature  their  capabili<es  increase  and  costs  decrease

Challenge  to  Balance  Scope,  Schedule  &  Resources  

•  Scope:  What  is  really  needed?    How  can  work  be  eliminated?  •  Schedule:  When  is  the  scope  needed?    How  much  Lme  is  

available?    How  can  I  get  more  Lme?  •  Resources:    What  is  needed  to  do  the  work  on  the  required  

schedule?    How  can  I  leverage  my  resources  to  get  more  done?  

 

Triage:  Determining  the  priority  of  effort  based  on  criLcality  of  need,  Lme  available  and  the  availability  of  resources   7

Increasing  Resources,  Reducing  Work  and  Expanding  Development  Time  

•  Put  your  effort  into  what  makes  a  difference  –  Leverage  Saas,  use  your  resources  on  what  makes  a  difference  –  Use  Iaas  if  Saas  not  available  

 •  Get  expert  help  while  you  build  your  team  and  build  your  team  with  

experts    

•  Use  the  globe  to  expand  the  Lme  available    

•  Develop  Rigorous  Quality  Processes  

•  Follow  an  agile  approach  –  Made  decisions  quickly  (fail  fast)  –  Makes  the  best  use  of  the  available  Lme  

•  Create  a  communicaLng  environment  

10

Embrace  Cloud  CompuLng  

•  SaaS  frees  up  resources  to  work  on  higher  value  acLviLes  –  No  server  room  or  servers  to  maintain    –  Handled  by  Saas  vendor  

•  InformaLon  and  Infrastructure  Security  •  Backup  and  Data  Recovery  

•  Veeva  eliminates  a  significant  amount  of  interface  work  •  BTW:  beware  of  vendors  new  to  a  funcLonal  space  

•  Ensure  their  staff  isn’t  also  new  to  the  space      

Cloud  allows  you  to  focus  on  compeLLve  advantage   11

Get  Expert  Help  

•  We  hired  smart,  experienced  vendors  to  parachute  in  and  help    •  Veeva  professional  services  •  IB  Technology    •  LPW  Training  

•  Hire  smart,  experienced  staff    •  The  clinical  to  commercial  transiLon  is  hard  

•  But  don’t  out-­‐source  your  brains  •  We  quickly  hired  staff  with  the  skills  and  knowledge  to  own  

these  soluLons

Use  the  Globe    

This  approach  converts  12  hours  to  24  hours   15  

•  Two  risks  to  using  an  offshore  vendor  •  Time  difference  •  Cultural  communicaLons  differences  

•  Different  EducaLonal  System  •  Different  Business  Project  Model  

•  Successful  onsite-­‐offshore  model  •  Vendor  has  lead  onsite  

•  Reduces  cultural  communicaLon  gaps  •  Vendor  handles  the  Lme  difference  

Page 16: Kythera BioPharma Commercial Infrastructure 2015 05 28 final

Establish  Rigorous  QC  Processes  and  Roles  

QC  Processes  are  like  Whac-­‐a-­‐mole  Dirty  data  problems  never  end     16
