This success story showcases how the analytics center of excellence delivery model improved the relevance and quality of scientific content for a global pharma intelligence provider.

As we know...

Pharma companies rely on high-quality, timely and actionable intelligence to drive strategic decision-making and unlock value at speed. Data-led insights are vital to core enterprise objectives, including navigating market complexities, adapting to evolving customer expectations and optimizing portfolio strategy.

This puts the onus on intelligence and research firms to provide pharma companies with calibrated and connected data to support the end goal of helping patients get access to life-saving therapies.

The challenge for the pharma research firm was...

Meeting its clients’ growing demand for comprehensive coverage, high-quality analysis and rapid turnaround. The firm lacked the specialized skills required to process complex and unstructured scientific information, derive insights and provide an up-to-date view of the global drug pipeline and sales forecasts.

Compounding the challenge was the pressure to scale operations as the clients’ needs grew with geographic and portfolio expansions. With a lean team possessing generic skills, the firm found it difficult to manage existing content, let alone add new datasets or increase coverage.

WNS stepped in as a research and analytics partner...
