A mandate in turnaround management includes a role for a private equity-backed Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO). The CMO played a crucial role in the niche market of supporting clinical trial sponsors with packaging, labeling, and storage of clinical trial material. In 2021, Ardian, a private equity firm managing over €100 billion in assets, acquired a majority stake in the company which became part of a holding structure connecting 39 locations and 44 laboratories, employing over 2,000 professionals. The mandate focused on implementing operational enhancements, particularly in proposal and key account management.
