  abstract = {Our research motivation was to create a mechanism to improve a CDMO efficiency for modern conditions, i.e., a mechanism which could contribute to the stable organic growth and long-term development of the CDMO. We have used complex approach, systematic approach, comparative analysis, scientific observation, synthesis, abstract-logical method and etc. as scientific methods and approaches. The main findings and implications are the following: a classification of services provided by CDMOs, a general pharmaceutical development algorithm, the CDMO efficiency improvement mechanism, a method for evaluating the CDMO efficiency and the risk assessment method (includes 41 risks).  The Kaizen approach was used as an opportunity to search for the internal sources of the CDMO organic growth. These implications have been implemented in a calculation of the efficiency of one of the Swiss CDMOs taking into account the use of this mechanism and without it.  The use of this mechanism will ensure the CDMO long-term development and the stable increase in CDMO efficiency: the stable decrease in the number of projects not completed on time by about 5%, the high loyalty of customers and employees of the company, the stable growth of new and newly contacted customers by about 5%, the stable annual growth of 5% of economic efficiency coefficients is predicted.},
