Business Intelligence and Key Performance Indicators for Pharmaceuticals

Today’s pharmaceutical companies are large and complex with a critical need for information and data. Data crosses the enterprise in the form of research and development, regulatory compliance requirements, test data, drug contraindications, side effects, clinical trials, ingredients and dosage information, doctor and patient information and more.

The cost to develop and sell a pharmaceutical product is very high and, if risk is not mitigated, the cost of non-compliance or critical performance problems can be even

higher! Whether your enterprise sells prescription or non-prescription drugs or other pharmaceutical products, your business needs to process a large volume of information. To make this information meaningful and usable, it must be integrated with data from all other enterprise systems and reported in a way that will support business decisions and make it easy for the business user to quickly analyse issues and stay abreast of the latest developments and problems.

Developing a pharmaceutical product for sale involves human resource allocation and skills and knowledge management, the expense of managing the patients and practitioners involved in clinical trials and a protracted time to market with the need for constant data management and analysis. Test data may cross geographical and cultural boundaries, and require data analysis and communication in various languages and across multiple enterprise systems and platforms. Once a drug or pharmaceutical product has been tested, the enterprise must obtain approval from regulatory agencies and work within strict parameters with little margin for error.

How does Business Intelligence (BI) support the pharmaceutical enterprise? The answer is simple. The ElegantJ BI business intelligence and corporate performance management (CPM) solutions go beyond simple enterprise reporting. Our solutions provide the ability to quickly and easily implement BI across the enterprise in a simple, practical, affordable, browser-based environment. ElegantJ BI is accessible to every user and can be used to support strategic, tactical and operational goals and to establish metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) to objectively measure performance. Users can view and manage data in a simple dashboard environment to manage quality control, receive notice of quality issues, target and manage sales, supply and distribution and supplier and network relationships.

Powerful personalised dashboards and custom automated alerts enable the business user to stay abreast of the most recent information and notify the user immediately when a critical threshold has been crossed. Users can leverage features like slice and dice, drill through, forecasting and predictive analysis and many other features to analyse, display and share information in an intuitive way using charts, graphs, gauges, and graphical OLAP – all within an environment that easily integrates data from multiple systems and sources.
