Partnering with a Trusted CRDMO for Peptide Innovation

October 15, 2025

At CPC Scientific, we know that peptide programs rarely move in a straight line. New ideas surface, priorities shift, and timelines tighten. That’s why flexibility is key.

CPC Scientific offers FTE-based discovery chemistry for synthetic peptides. Our Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) services are designed to provide dedicated scientific support, seamlessly extending your team with CPC Scientific’s expertise, facilities, and proven track record in peptide development.

Custom Peptide Synthesis and Full Time Employment (FTE) Services

What are FTE Services?

Our FTE model provides clients with a dedicated team of CPC Scientific scientists and technical staff working exclusively on their projects for an agreed period. Customers are charged a fixed rate per assigned scientist, benefiting from consistent, ongoing collaboration.

Because value is delivered as the work is performed, this model enables continuous progress tracking and flexibility to pivot as priorities evolve, making it especially well-suited for dynamic peptide programs. Rather than contracting projects one by one, you “reserve” time and expertise that can flex across your evolving needs.

For peptide programs, this means:

  • Efficient synthesis of custom peptides or complex sequences
  • Adaptability to reallocate resources across discovery, process development, or scale-up
  • Continuity with a dedicated team that builds deep familiarity with your goals

The result? Faster turnaround, lower administrative overhead, and a true partnership model that scales with your pipeline.
