Biophys has the expertise to analyse the company strategy, as defined by the Senior Management, and will apply the following processes:

• Analyse the technical requirements inherent in the company’s long term strategy.
• Define the skills required by staff, and where required, a gap analysis for personal development plans for technical staff.
• Identify, develop and document the systems (Quality Management / New Product Development / Regulatory Requirements / Environmental) requirements to meet customers’ and regulatory needs.
• Determine the equipment requirements to meet the technical strategy, or to select relevant service suppliers to which non-core functions can be outsourced.
