What Our Clients Are Saying

"IPM provides more than just project management support; they share ownership for project deliverables and milestones. When I go to bed at night concerned about a project, I know the IPM project manager is worrying along with me."

John Ludwig, Ph.D Senior Vice President of Medicinal Sciences, Pfizer

"IPM has two attributes that differentiate them: the first is true commitment to client success; the second is their proactive approach to leveraging the collective talent of IPM. Their commitment to client success was exemplified by the time invested in getting to know not just my team but also our interfaces and stakeholders. When it comes to the breadth of IPM expertise, I was impressed by their rapid and effective engagement of experts from the Centers of Excellence, which facilitated delivery of solutions that met the breadth of our needs."

Vice President Global Quality Analytical Science & Technology

"IPM left an indelible mark. Our consultant left us with structures and processes in place that allow us to continue tracking and building our portfolio of projects and to communicate the value of our projects back to the rest of the organization."

Director, Product Management Pharmaceutical Company

"We were aware that if we hired an IPM project manager, there would be a whole system of knowledge behind that person that would really help us as we were going through new transitions for our company—preparing for NDA, preparing for commercial—and help us better anticipate what would be ahead of us and plan for that."

Ericka Benson VP Portfolio and Program Management, Catabasis Pharmaceuticals Inc.
