The U.S. healthcare contract development and manufacturing organization market size was estimated at USD 65.3 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 144.2 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 9.41% from 2025 to 2033. The U.S. healthcare CDMO market is expanding rapidly, driven by rising demand for biologics, biosimilars, and advanced therapies, including cell and gene therapies. Besides, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly focused on R&D in oncology, rare diseases, and immunology, creating the need for highly specialized manufacturing expertise.
CDMOs provide critical infrastructure, scalability, and technical capabilities that many firms lack internally. Growth is further reinforced by strong pipeline activity, patent expirations of biologics, and the acceleration of personalized medicine. This has led CDMOs to become essential partners in enabling faster development timelines, cost efficiency, and compliant production of complex therapies. Pharmaceutical and biotech companies are partnering with CDMOs to reduce operational costs and accelerate product development. Besides, among pharmaceutical companies, establishing in-house facilities requires substantial capital investment, workforce training, and regulatory compliance, which may slow innovation, which has further led to the rise of CDMO services.
In addition, CDMOs offer pharmaceutical and medical device companies' immediate access to advanced technologies, large-scale facilities, and flexible production models. This partnership supports minimizing the financial risks and allows pharma companies to focus on core R&D while leveraging CDMOs for clinical and commercial manufacturing. In a highly competitive market where speed is critical, CDMOs offer an agile and cost-efficient pathway to bring drugs to market faster, ensuring competitive advantage and profitability.
The U.S. healthcare industry operates under stringent FDA and global regulatory frameworks, requiring strict adherence to GMP standards, validation, and documentation. Besides, navigating these compliance requirements can be highly resource-intensive for pharma companies. CDMOs, however, possess deep regulatory expertise, established quality systems, and experience managing global submissions, reducing the risk of delays and non-compliance. Their ability to consistently meet evolving regulatory standards enhances trust and reliability. In addition, CDMOs are investing in digitalization, automation, and data-driven compliance systems to strengthen oversight. This regulatory know-how makes CDMOs indispensable strategic partners, enabling pharma companies to focus on innovation while ensuring product quality and patient safety.
