According to industry representatives, administrative and regulatory processes that previously required months or even years can now be completed within days, marking a significant improvement in operational efficiency.

The shift toward digital systems was praised for reducing opportunities for corruption, minimizing unnecessary administrative delays, and facilitating faster processing of industry-related matters.
Industry representatives also acknowledged that these reforms have improved ease of doing business, enabling pharmaceutical manufacturers and other stakeholders to navigate regulatory procedures more effectively.
