Consulting Focus: IT Quality Management, GMP Compliance, Business and IT Process Improvements, Project Management, Facilitating Change and Communication Astrid Sanders started her business with the drive to build a ‘tatkräftigen’ (See explanation of this term below) support for projects in the pharmaceutical industry. A rising number of international clients then lead to the inception of Sanders & Associates GmbH in 2013. Today, the two consultancies jointly support Life Science companies in their efforts in Quality Management, GMP Compliance, improvement of processes and project management, as well as facilitating change processes and communication. The Term Tatkraft or Tatkräftig - literally meaning the power of doing - cannot be translated directly. It implies a hands-on approach, a drive to actively "do what is needed".
