MSI's Formulations Consortium provides design and information technology tools to help companies match formulated products to customer needs in less time at lower cost. The Consortium applies MSI's proprietary knowledge management software FAST to assist members' formulations processes. Clorox ultimately sees MSI's FAST software as providing a corporate-wide infrastructure for its formulations activities.
Formulations are relevant to many industries, including foods, detergent, and pharmaceuticals.
More than 100 organizations participate in MSI's five other consortia in the areas of functional genomics, combinatorial chemistry, polymers, catalysis, and molecular crystallization. The consortium is committed to delivering real business advantage to its members around the world. We are delighted to welcome Clorox to this exciting project. The Clorox Company is a U.S.-based multinational manufacturer and marketer of household products and products for institutional markets. Pharmacopeia's Drug Discovery Services segment integrates proprietary small molecule combinatorial chemistry, high-throughput screening and informatics to accelerate its customers' drug discovery efforts.
