An industry in transition
The life science industry has been in transition for more than a decade. With the shift away from the traditional set-up, where a dozen established players each claimed their own piece of the pie, life sciences companies are now having to reinvent themselves to adapt to a new business context. And that requires – even more so than in other industries – a quest for a continuous balance between patient-centricity and bottom-line business results.
Challenges for the life science industry
Patient-centricity
With an industry-wide move from treatment to prevention, informed and demanding patients become partners in their own health care. New business models revolve around end-to-end transparency and integrity.
Mergers & acquisitions
Newly formed organizations require a new equilibrium in terms of people, processes, technology and responsibilities. The quest for performance improvement is ongoing.
Digitization
Moving into the digital era challenges everyone in the industry to rethink their current operating model. Whether it is in planning, production, distribution or customer service, transformation will be the new key success factor.
“End-to-End visibility is the new holy grail to become responsive to changes in global demand.”
