Pradar delivers business intelligence and market insights to help monitor the parallel trade of pharmaceuticals in Europe.

The pharmaceutical industry is confronting a number of trends that create new challenges while also providing opportunities for our customers. These trends include issues such as end of life-cycle (patent) product management planning and pricing, legislative challenges (significantly around reporting), parallel trade and the data challenges around in-market sales.

Pomerol has worked with a number of global Pharma clients to help them tackle their individual challenges and pain points.

  • In Market Sales solutions, helping clients have a single point of view for all of their sales activity, spend, forecast and budget information.
  • SAP ERP sales reporting (single source for global sales reporting, with rebate calculations, discount agreement adjustments).
  • Sunshine Act data reporting and solution implementation.
  • Parallel Trade analysis and solution implementation.

In 2016 we created an external master data management process to standardize reporting on products and customers across these 50 markets. This included a granular pricing matrix developed to more accurately understand ‘off-invoice’ discounts/rebates/taxes and improve the accuracy of accrual. The result was the customer finally being able to derive profitability at a customer and product level, instead of at a territory level.
