🚨 Recent Delivery: Protocol-Critical IMP to Birmingham
The Situation: At 10:23am on a Wednesday, a pharmaceutical company discovered that investigational medicinal products (IMPs) scheduled for a clinical trial patient visit in Birmingham at 2:00pm had not been dispatched from their depot in Oxford due to an administrative error. The trial protocol required the medication to be administered that day.
Our Response: We collected the temperature-controlled IMPs from Oxford within 22 minutes, maintaining 2-8°C throughout transport with continuous temperature logging. The trial site received real-time tracking and estimated arrival updates.
The Outcome: IMPs arrived at the Birmingham trial site at 1:34pm – 3 hours 11 minutes from initial call, within required temperature range (validated data logs provided), with complete chain of custody documentation and regulatory-compliant proof of delivery.
