Premium Label & Packaging Solutions (PLPS) has announced the launch of MyClinicalSuite, a clinical-only label and packaging production environment designed to help clinical research organizations maintain the highest standards of quality, compliance, and data integrity, while providing faster turnaround times.

Operating from PLPS’s Lakewood, NJ, facility, MyClinicalSuite combines in-house variable data printing (VDP), robust quality procedures, including inline vision inspection systems, and a dedicated team of clinical packaging experts to create a more agile and responsive production model.

The launch of MyClinicalSuite reflects the continued growth of PLPS’s healthcare segment. It includes the addition of industry veterans Stacy Falconer, Bill Kougelis, and Stephanie Wydra. Together, the team brings decades of healthcare experience across clinical trial labeling, packaging operations, commercial strategy, variable-data management, specialty applications, and regulated pharmaceutical environments.

Their combined experience supporting national and global market leaders and managing large-scale healthcare packaging programs helped shape the development of MyClinicalSuite. The environment addresses the increasing demand for speed and flexibility in clinical markets.

“Healthcare label and packaging programs require specialized expertise, operational precision, and rapid responsiveness,” says Chris Payne, CEO of PLPS. “Our investment in this clinical-first operating structure and our growing healthcare team reflects the increasing importance of PLPS’s capabilities across regulated healthcare markets.”

Supporting clinical trial programs

Unlike traditional production environments, where clinical work competes with larger commercial production schedules, MyClinicalSuite supports the unique demands of clinical trial programs. By separating clinical production workflows from commercial operations, PLPS can shorten timelines, offer greater operational flexibility, and ensure smaller-batch clinical programs receive the same level of responsiveness and priority as larger production runs.

“Sponsors are under enormous pressure to move faster while navigating increasing complexity, tighter timelines, evolving trial designs, and heightened regulatory expectations,” says Falconer. “MyClinicalSuite was built to address those realities directly. The unique production environment is managed by an experienced team focused solely on clinical trials, allowing us to deliver speed without compromising quality, compliance, or control.”

“MyClinicalSuite reduces risk, improves patient-level tracking accuracy, and secures trial administration,” adds Bill Kougelis. Clinical Product Line director, PLPS. “By managing in-house VDP and label/booklet production within a clinical-focused environment, we can execute late-stage changes more efficiently, improve turnaround performance, and help sponsors maintain complete data integrity and patient control throughout the trial process.”

PLPS’s Lakewood ISO-certified facility follows cGMP standards and has been producing clinical trial labels and packaging since 2008. The site offers a wide range of clinical trial labels and packaging applications. These include booklets, extended content, and specialty labels such as cryogenic and pattern adhesive. Integrated vision systems and 200% inspection processes validate both bar codes and human-readable data throughout production.

The launch of MyClinicalSuite further expands PLPS’s broader healthcare capabilities in pharmaceutical, medical device, OTC, and regulated healthcare markets across pressure sensitive labels, expanded content labels, shrink sleeves, flexible packaging, and specialty packaging applications.
