About Us

Over two decades helping clients navigate the difficult path of regulatory compliance.

In 2006, MMS was created by Dr. Uma Sharma, with a vision to turn a one-person consultancy into a global, data-focused CRO that caters to the unique and often changing needs of sponsors. More than 20 years later, with an industry-leading customer satisfaction rating, MMS stays true to its dependable and customer-driven nature. A science-first approach and strong processes have smoothed the waters for MMS clients resulting in growth year over year, with more than 1,000 colleagues worldwide.

MMS is a place where years of proven success have guided sponsors through their data strategy and regulatory submissions goals. When MMS takes on a project, colleagues become ingrained in that sponsor, taking on a greater level of care and guiding them towards a positive outcome.

Sponsors that demand high quality come to MMS for strong industry expertise, a scientific approach to drug development, and top talent. Sponsors stay with MMS for its flexibility, agility, and a “do what it takes” attitude that is unrivaled in the industry.

With a global footprint spanning four continents, MMS continues to earn industry recognition for excellence and innovation. The company has been honored with multiple awards including Best CRO – Specialist Provider at the Scrip Awards, Best Data-Focused CRO at the GHP Global Excellence Awards, Excellence in Client Service and Partnership at the Fierce CRO Awards, and Data Science Solution of the Year at the Data Breakthrough Awards for its Datacise® platform.

In addition to these wins, MMS has been named a finalist and shortlisted across multiple industry recognition programs, including Citeline, ACDM, TOPRA, and Fierce Innovation, reflecting the breadth of its scientific and technological leadership.

In 2025, MMS expanded its advanced analytics and trial design capabilities through the strategic acquisition of Exploristics, strengthening its leadership in simulation-driven development and trial design. This milestone reflected MMS’s continued investment in innovation and its commitment to helping sponsors make more confident development decisions.

Recently, MMS has led breakthrough sponsor programs that include the following:

TOGETHER Trial, which uses an Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system designed, built, and maintained by MMS, won the Society for Clinical Trial’s annual Trial of the Year Award.
Friends of Cancer Research, a leading nonprofit dedicated to accelerating innovation in cancer research, selected MMS to support the development of practical decision frameworks to inform the interpretation of interim overall survival (OS) data in oncology clinical trials.
Gates Ventures, in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson, AD Data Initiative, and the Global Neurodegeneration Proteomics Consortium (GNPC), chose MMS to support data intake, harmonization, and anonymization that united 250 million unique protein measurements from 35,000 biosamples across more than 20 international cohorts spanning Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, ALS, and Frontotemporal Dementia.

Behind every milestone and client partnership is a culture designed to empower exceptional talent, which has been recognized through multiple workplace awards. MMS has been certified as a Top Workplace in the United States and Michigan for multiple consecutive years as well as a Certified Great Place to Work in India and other global regions.
