In our rapidly changing world, adaptability is essential. The strategies and decisions that yielded results yesterday might not be as effective today. By actively engaging with and updating our mental models, we position ourselves to adapt swiftly to evolving circumstances. This ensures our decisions remain timely and anchored in the present.
Every month, MedicinMan in partnership with IMS Health, brings our readers the latest industry numbers related to sales and revenues of different companies, brands and therapy areas in the Indian Pharmaceutical Market.
Pharmaceutical companies must contend with challenges from supply chain lapses (theft, diversion, S.O.P. deviations, product recalls, reverse logistics etc.) counterfeiting and stringent regulations. These challenges get compounded when dealing across the states and country business operations, besides that not only impact tangible profits but also the intangible brand credibility. In this context, there is also a credible increase in public awareness about the genuineness of medicine (in particular medicine that require cold chain) and their predictability of clinical outcomes.
Providing visibility and full traceability becomes a paramount importance to both the Industry and the Govt. – A fool proof solution not only brings transparency in the system, but can also be a key differentiator, and undoubtedly can create immense opportunities for a competitive advantage.
Indian Pharma companies will have to create hybrid employees, who can be designated as the Digital Task Force (DTF).
Just as STFs were created to create a better perception and improve engagement with specialist doctors, DTF can rebuild relationships with doctors on a new premise of helping them to gain digital advantage to better manage their practice and patients.
