Case Study: Sagent Pharmaceuticals achieves streamlined drug development and faster partner collaboration with Smartsheet

Good Processes Help the Medicine Go Down

Sagent Pharmaceuticals, a mid‑size U.S. subsidiary focused on injectable generics, coordinates development with global CROs and CMOs and must balance speed with strict regulatory controls. As the company grew, disparate tools and processes began to cause delays, reduce transparency, and make it harder to maintain agility while mitigating risk.

Sagent implemented Smartsheet as a configurable, easy‑to‑use single source of truth, adding dashboards, integrated timelines, and shared reports so internal teams and external partners can view real‑time status and responsibilities. The result was faster, clearer coordination across stakeholders, higher adoption and engagement, fewer meeting prep delays, and stronger collaboration that positions Sagent to expand Smartsheet use into portfolio management and become a preferred partner for CROs/CMOs.
