Introducing CMR International

Staying ahead in a complex, global industry requires knowing the answers to a constant stream of questions. As the pharmaceutical industry continues to face exacting times, the need for detailed, up-to-date information is vital to companies for effective strategic planning.

But relying on internally-gathered data alone is inherently problematic — it provides no external comparator against which to judge where you’re under-performing, whether your resources are optimally allocated, or if the targets you set are realistic and competitive.

That’s why most of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies rely on CMR International, a Thomson business, as their performance metrics partner. They choose us because:

  • We are the only provider with the necessary breadth and depth of research
  • The data we gather are confidential and secure
  • They have confidence in the quality and reliability of the information we provide


Quoting CMR International as the source of information — in public and academic communications, and by consultants, specialist commentators and the press — has become a universally-accepted guarantee of its objective validity.

Extensive data mining — authoritative trends analysis

CMR International provides an authoritative source of robust industry metrics to support strategic decision making and aid predictive project planning and management. Our business model is applied on a far larger scale and with far greater vigour than any other comparable information provider. Indeed, the milestones we originally devised are now applied throughout the industry.


Our findings are published in The CMR International Pharmaceutical R&D Factbook, in a range of special subject papers, and widely reported in the press.

We also provide custom analytical services for individual clients. Our expertise is on tap at many of the world’s largest pharmaceutical organizations — helping to steer smarter, faster and better-informed decisions across the industry.
