Life Sciences
IndustriesThe pandemic has digitalised this industry more than any single CIO could ever have. From the digital workplace, over customer-centric commercial models, to a new emphasis on supply chain visibility, the crisis has reshaped the face of Life Sciences.
Current trends & challenges
At the start of the pandemic, digital enablement became a necessity for biopharma and MedTech companies, with shifts to completely virtual models almost overnight. A recent study shows that 1 out of 3 Life Sciences execs believe COVID-19 accelerated digital transformation by five or more years. It is important to rethink how physicians engage with patients and how they can drive value through digital channels and on-demand products.
- Dynamic Supply Chains Require Adaptive Planning and Resilience
The pandemic has brought forward many changes to the supply chain, such as a shorter research lifecycle (from genome sequencing to commercially approved vaccines in less than a year) and redesigning facilities based on adaptive manufacturing principles (flexible production lines). Supply chain planning is now at the forefront due to logistical and procurement challenges. It is critical to ensure your supply chain is centred around resilience and adaptability. Data driven companies that were able to monitor a crisis in real-time proved to be more resilient during the crisis and came out ahead. - Accelerated Digitisation
Telehealth has skyrocketed, broadening the role of digitisation in continued care. Digital patient management activities, such as virtual consultations and online medicine prescription are now commonplace, and the workforce has become hybrid due to blurred geographical borders (on-site and remote HCP talent). - Customer-centric Commercial Model Redefined
