Transforming CDMO Success

About Us

Chrysalys Bio is a consulting firm built for CDMOs ready to move beyond potential and into performance.

We specialize in transforming commercial and operational systems into revenue engines—bridging the gaps that hold CDMOs back from scalable, sustainable growth. Whether the challenge is misaligned BD strategy, poor internal handoffs, unclear pricing models, or cultural friction that slows execution, Chrysalys Bio brings structure, clarity, and accountability to every layer of the organization.

Founded by CDMO veteran Heather N. Sugrue, Chrysalys Bio operates at the intersection of strategy and execution. We don’t just advise from the sidelines—we help leadership teams build practical systems that convert the right clients, deliver with consistency, and retain revenue over time.

Because in this space, transformation isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a responsibility.

Chrysalys Bio Core Values

Empathy with Edge

Listen intently, challenge courageously, and lead with heart.

Radical Transparency

Honest insights and real conversations that unlock progress.

Strategic Curiosity

Question everything because it drives creativity and real solutions.

Alignment Before Action

Execute with clear intent across all departments

Deliberate Execution

Scale collaboratively using systems and focused actions

Culture isn’t just soft. It’s the operating system that drives accountability and transparency that determines whether revenue growth can scale—or will stall.

Chrysalys Bio helps CDMOs strengthen internal collaboration, communication alignment, and accountability—so teams execute faster, trust deeper, and retain the clients who drive long-term revenue.

We deliver measurable growth through:

  • Redesigning communication frameworks and feedback loops to accelerate decisions, reduce rework, and eliminate revenue-impacting delays.
  • Optimizing meeting cadence and structure to drive clarity, ownership, and client-facing performance.
  • Clarifying cross-functional roles and responsibilities to eliminate bottlenecks and improve handoffs across BD, PM, Ops, and Quality.
  • Strengthening cultural foundations of trust and accountability that support scalable execution, retention, and client expansion.

Sustainable growth starts with financial clarity. 

Chrysalys Bio helps CDMOs identify gaps in pricing, cost alignment, and revenue visibility—then partners with internal teams or external specialists to implement models and performance measures that create consistency and support long-term growth.

We engineer revenue-aligned strategies by:

  • Evaluating pricing strategies to ensure they reflect true value and protect margin.
  • Identifying gaps in revenue tracking and forecasting that limit growth confidence.
  • Reviewing cost structures to ensure alignment with service pricing and scalability goals.
  • Recommending frameworks and next-step tools to bring clarity to financial operations and forecasting.

Operational gaps don't just cause frustration—they erode client trust, create revenue forecast variability and reduce future revenue potential.

Chrysalys Bio assesses your commercial and delivery processes to ensure you’re building client relationships that last—and growing revenue through performance, not promises.

We design and implement systems to:

  • Align commercial messaging with operational capabilities to improve client fit and deal quality.
  • Evaluate and enhance site visit preparation and execution tied to building client trust and improving win rates.
  • Optimize RFP-to-proposal processes for faster turnarounds and project close rates.
  • Strengthen client onboarding workflows to maintain momentum and influence client retention, project expansions, and referrals.

Business development doesn’t just drive deals—it determines the quality, scalability, and longevity of your entire revenue engine. 

Chrysalys Bio helps CDMOs build commercial strategies that align with operational strength—so your pipeline isn’t just full, it’s built with right-fit, funded clients positioned for long-term partnerships and sustained revenue growth.

We transform BD performance by:

  • Defining ideal client profiles and align territory strategies to uncover high-value revenue opportunities.
  • Strengthening prospecting processes to increase engagement quality and conversion potential.
  • Optimizing pipeline quality and provide better visibility to forecast accuracy and strategic decision-making.
  • Installing KPIs and governance frameworks to increase accountability and drive measurable BD performance.
