What we do
We are the leading consultancy for pharmaceutical and medical product companies. We have supported our clients on over 4,500 projects in the past five years.
We work across strategy, R&D, operations, and commercial topics. Our broad range of work gives us a comprehensive perspective on many of the issues our clients face:
- how to achieve growth in a global marketplace
- how to prioritize R&D investment
- how to optimize operational effectiveness
- how to create distinctive products in a crowded marketplace
- how to navigate healthcare reform
Over 80 percent of our projects are done for clients who have asked us to come back to do more work. Our work often starts with a problem, but doesn't end until our clients have developed lasting capabilities.
