Solutions for Pharmaceutical & Biotech Teams

Industry outlook

Consolidation has been a consistent theme in the pharmaceutical industry over the last few years and especially in 2019, with some deals setting new records at over $50 billion. We don’t expect these industry mergers and acquisitions to slow down any time soon as new drugs enter the market, blockbuster drugs reach patent expiration, and companies are placed under increased scrutiny to lower prices and cut costs.

For commercial teams, this landscape brings about immense top-down pressure to demonstrate results and increase efficiency. And those pressures don’t just affect big pharma. For big and small companies alike, teams must work quickly, part of which involves effective promotional material review.

When getting by just isn’t enough

Remaining efficient while also staying compliant can feel like a constant juggling act. You’re producing and reviewing materials at a speed that makes sense for your business, and keeping track of the necessary approvals and signatures to comply with FDA requirements. However, even that seems cumbersome and inefficient.

We’re here to tell you that obtaining speed and compliance is easier than you think with Pepper Flow®. Throw away makeshift processes and legacy systems that drag your team down, and instead leverage pre-validated, affordable software built exclusively to reduce risk and streamline the review process. Best of all, Pepper Flow enables you to be up and running in a matter of days or weeks with very little training—how’s that for efficiency?
