Contract & FTE Chemistry
For all enquiries, please contact us.
Reliability & competence
Full Time Equivalent (FTE) chemistry support offers the benefit of dedicated chemists focused solely on one client's interests on a contract basis, for short- or long-term projects as required.
Key Organics offers different FTE business models to satisfy all synthesis requirements:
The KOCAS service - Key Organics’ chemists providing their specialised skills in difficult and challenging chemistry to exceptionally high standards.
Key Organics' record of success is second to none, often delivering positive results where other companies have previously failed.
The Integrated service – any of the Key Organics’ FTE chemistry services integrated with its biology/screening and computational chemistry services to provide the complete drug discovery platform.
Whichever model is chosen, intellectual property (IP) generated within an FTE becomes the property of the client, many projects having created highly valuable IP leading downstream to patents and commercial products.
As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tennants Group, Key Organics has the financial strength to remain a sustainable, long-term and reliable partner to meet all your chemistry needs.
Confidentiality
Key Organics' KOCAS and clients range from major multinationals, to biotechs, start-ups, and virtual companies. All have one thing in common: the need for absolute discretion and total confidentiality.
Having provided outsourcing chemistry solutions for over 25 years, Key Organics has a proven track record of working in complete confidence under stringent non-disclosure agreements (testimonials).
Flexibility of Service
FTE KOCAS and team members are selected for the appropriateness of their skills and experience in relation to the project, being proactive, flexible and dedicated to a client's changing needs.
They provide high quality chemistry, offering novel synthesis solutions whilst communicating effectively according to the requirements and wishes of the client.
Contract/Full-Time Equivalent(FTE) models are aimed at more research-based projects, whereas Custom Synthesis projects are suitable for discreet projects and single compounds.
Examples of projects are:
- Hit-to-lead work (small- to medium-sized library synthesis).
- Lead Optimisation (for selectivity, receptor binding, ADMET and pharmacokinetic properties).
- Asymmetric syntheses and optical resolution.
- Microwave chemistry.
- Patent exemplification work (patent protection and patent busting).
- Process development, Scale-up and cGMP (mg→g→kgs).
Value
Competitive pricing in relation to our capabilities coupled with sector-leading quality and service, delivers unbeatable value for money.
Quality
Every compound is rigorously quality assured by the in-house Analytical Department to meet or exceed the specifications of the individual client.
