Oxford Biomedica Enhances Quality Operations with Veeva Quality Cloud
Oxford Biomedica (OXB), a leading contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) specializing in advanced therapies, is set to revolutionize its quality management practices globally through an innovative partnership with Veeva Systems. As part of this collaboration, OXB will implement the Veeva Quality Cloud, enabling it to streamline its operational processes across multiple countries including the UK, France, and the USA.
Melanie Kearney, OXB's Senior Vice President and Global Head of Quality, emphasized the significance of adopting a modern quality platform, which is essential for establishing consistent and efficient workflows within their vast network of gene and cell therapy manufacturing sites. The integration of Veeva Quality Cloud is expected to harmonize OXB's quality processes, enhance inter-site collaboration, and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
The adoption of Veeva Quality Cloud comes at a time when OXB is focused on expediting the market entry of its clients' products while supporting its growing viral vector manufacturing operations. Kearney noted, "This implementation will assure our clients that they receive the same high standards of quality, governance, and controls, regardless of where they collaborate with us."
Using Veeva QualityDocs, OXB will manage controlled content, while Veeva QMS will standardize quality processes across its sites. Furthermore, the training tools offered by Veeva, including Veeva Training and Veeva Learn GxP, will streamline training efforts within the organization.
This consolidation of multiple quality systems into a single cloud-based platform will proactively address evolving client needs and regulatory requirements, reducing the manual workload on teams and simplifying the technological landscape.
Rob Weisz, Veeva's Senior Vice President of Strategy, stated, "OXB's commitment to quality and innovation is vital in helping its clients deliver life-changing therapies to patients around the world. Veeva Quality Cloud will provide the technological foundation necessary to scale quality operations internationally while maintaining rigorous manufacturing standards."
Veeva Quality Cloud unifies quality processes, streamlines compliance, and fosters collaboration, aimed at minimizing cycle times and maximizing organizational efficiency. To learn more about how Veeva Quality Cloud supports CDMOs, visit
