You launched your biotech startup to change the world—to push the boundaries of science. You didn’t sign up to spend hours on hold with lab supply vendors, chase backorders, or reconcile invoices. Yet, too often, that’s exactly where your time goes—time pulled away from research, fundraising, and strategic execution.
The Silent Burn Rate: When Procurement Becomes a Problem
Every minute you spend on purchasing is a minute you don’t spend in the lab, pitching investors, or mentoring your team. In the lean world of pre-seed and seed-stage biotech, every hour and every dollar matters. As a result, inefficient procurement becomes more than an annoyance—it quietly drains your runway.
Meanwhile, you’re working against the clock to validate your science and secure funding. However, when you get stuck ordering pipettes or tracking delayed reagents, your progress slows. In many cases, these small disruptions compound into major setbacks.
Moreover, the issue isn’t just time—it’s cost.
Are you truly getting the best pricing? Probably not. Negotiating with vendors, navigating pricing tiers, and unlocking discounts requires time and expertise. Consequently, most startups pay close to list price. That means you lose potential savings that could fund another month of research, support a key hire, or accelerate a critical experiment.
Your Co-Pilot for Procurement: Focus on Science, Not Supplies
So, what if you could eliminate 90% of your procurement workload—without losing control, hiring staff, or increasing burn?
That’s exactly why Dr. David Kiewlich, a 6-time biotech entrepreneur, founded Mission Booster Procurement.
Instead of forcing you to manage purchasing, we handle it for you. Specifically, we provide full-service outsourced procurement tailored to biotech and life sciences startups. In practice, that means we act as your embedded purchasing team—without the overhead.
We manage everything:
