About Kedar Khaladkar

I work at the intersection of business and technology, helping Life Sciences and Pharma organizations solve complex problems through practical, outcome-focused solutions. Over the past two decades, I’ve led global technology delivery, managed P&L for large accounts, and supported clients through digital transformation across R&D, Regulatory, Supply Chain and Logistics.I have hands-on experience delivering validated applications in regulated environments, with good exposure to GxP compliance, and audit readiness. I also bring solid exposure to SDLC governance, quality frameworks and operational excellence, ensuring that technology delivery is both efficient and compliant.My background spans multi-tower delivery leadership and engagement management. I’ve worked onsite in the US, led large distributed teams, and built delivery organizations that operate with autonomy, accountability and trust. I also contribute to account growth and solution strategy through offering development, solutioning and RFP leadership: owning proposals end-to-end and leading client conversations through to negotiation. I believe in strong fundamentals, transparent communication and technology that genuinely moves the business forward. I enjoy simplifying complexity, building strong teams that are business focused, and ensuring delivery that clients can rely on.(Views here are personal and not those of my employer)
