Transforming life sciences operating models: what are the imperatives and means for large players headquartered in developed markets?

Management agenda

• Compliance, growth and scalability most important challenges for life sciences organizations today according to commercial operations executives

• Least pressing are capital asset intensity, risk management and agility

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ► LIFE SCIENCES COMMERCIAL OPERATIONS

Advanced operations can address imperatives

• Commercial strategy, access and reimbursement (contact center, pricing and analytics) operations seen as having impact on strategic challenges

• Compliance and advertising/promotion management most mature and most prepared to evolve, multi-channel marketing least mature

• Advanced organizational structures (shared services and BPO) seen as useful by many executives, but radically improved use of technology and business process reengineering have slightly more impact where applicable

In conclusion

Senior life sciences R&D executives are challenged to adapt to a rapidly changing business environment in an economy that remains unpredictable. They say that intense regulatory scrutiny, increasing cost pressures, and the need for innovation are the most important business concerns.

This research examined how those challenges can be tackled by three levers of operating model transformation: technology, process re-engineering, and advanced organizational structures. The related transformation of operations is an untapped strategic lever for the COO as well as the CEO.

However, it is sometimes seen as a formidable undertaking. Few understand the “IT + analytics + process operations” nexus sufficiently. Technological excesses of the past (such as ERP or data warehouses) are well documented. Some technologies are unproven, some uses of analytics are unclear, and older technologies are rigid and expensive to evolve. Finally, it is frequently a struggle to scale deep analytics throughout the enterprise.

Our experience of advanced operating models, accumulated over 15 years, clearly indicates that there are agile and practical ways to transform.

The key is to design, transform, and run the processes that power advanced operating models so that they closely align with measurable business goals, thereby avoiding saddling the company with unnecessary and often unmanageable complexity.

This approach focuses more rigorously on the sources of impact and deliberately disregards any practice that does not yield material outcomes. It also takes a more objective and holistic look at technology, analytics and organizational practices. It leverages now-mature “system of engagement” technologies that complement “system of record” technologies. It treats analytics (the arc of data-to-insight-to-action) as a process and determines how to embed insight at scale into the fabric of other enterprise processes; it does not take the typical approach of viewing analytics as a task and a set of technologies. Finally, it harnesses the process and organizational levers available from established disciplines, such as reengineering, shared services, outsourcing, and global delivery.

We think that there is a smarter way to transform operating models and address the most complex strategic challenges. This is a way for COOs to make their enterprises more intelligent and generate material impact.
