Have Access to Robust Intelligence.
Robust, timely, information is paramount for business planning. We rely on an extensive network of contacts and resources to collect information reflecting future market dynamics, competition practices, regulator, payer and technology assessment policies and stakeholder thinking and unmet needs. Intelligence, data, information is the fuel for business success.
Have Analytical Rigor and Evidence Based Approach.
Robust analytics inform our recommendations. We analyse qualitative and quantitative data with rigor. We review own and others’ previous methods and findings. We do not take data at face value. We test and triangulate every analysis to validity and reliability. We use hevretics and intuition to provide meaningful analyses. We do not analyse for the sake it. We keep it simple. We publish at top level peer review journals. We apply quality metrics and use quality referees.
Have Business Results Orientation.
Advices or deliverables need to have in business impact. Our guiding principle is that that internal decisions we based on our input or tactical deliverables used to support external decision need to generate tangible results. We do not deliver unrealistic, ungrounded and fancy ideas and deliverables. We only recommend actions that we would personally support and deliverables we would rely upon if we were in the shoes of our clients. We follow on projects and their impacts.
Develop High Integrity Collaborative Relationships
We strive to provide value through trusted relations and collaboration. We engage with clients at senior level throughout a project. We work closely and co-develop ideas in workshops. We are honest and tell what we truly believe, not what is nice to hear or politically correct. We are listening passively, we try to understand, and then to persuade and to get buy in rather than to push our thinking and recommendations.
We Provide Integrated and Holistic Solutions.
We integrate our work in the broader perspective. We align our proposals and solution offerings to the overall strategy, positioning, timelines, and principles of our clients. When we undertake multi modular project we make sure that our team and work is aligned internal and with the client. We are small, flexible and focused, but think the bigger picture and offer multiple service line integrated solutions. We have a single point of reference acting as a liaison and advocate of clients.
We Innovate, Create Value, in Efficient Manner.
We try to respond fast, be smart, and improve past practices in moving markets. The health care landscape transforms rapidly. Based on our deep industry knowledge and functional expertise we respond timely to customer needs in a with a fast-moving environment. In a competitive and complex environment, aspire to innovate our thinking so that our clients they provide value to theirs. Every case is different and every project we deliver custom-tailored to yield the strongest possible impact.
We Establish Strong and Respected Relationships with Stakeholders.
Analysis and strategy are two pillars of success but worth nothing without implementation. Health care and life science is a people business. Decision makers, policy makers, key opinion leaders, patient representatives, in various agencies and parts of the system are making data driven subjective judgments on the value of technology products. It is important to maintain corridors of communication that give opportunities to understand their needs and thinking and to test and get support for new ideas and solutions. This process facilitates more effective understanding of the value and endorsement of am innovation. Respect and thought leadership implies that works are highly perceived by decision makers and are not challenged.
