Role of Pricing Analytics in the Pharmaceutical Industry
In the pharmaceutical industry, clinicians, KOLs, payers, and patients play a crucial role in building an effective pricing strategy for new products. The pharma companies need a strong understanding of their customers and current market conditions before setting an optimal launch price. The implementation of the pricing analytics tool offers holistic insights on the product value, competitors, payer strategies, and customers’ willingness to pay.
One of the major challenges that pricing managers in the pharma industry deal with is getting all the internal stakeholders to agree on the pricing strategy. With pricing analytics, this is tackled as the assessment is a robust way of analyzing data. Quantzig’s pricing analytics assessment identifies the value drivers for products in the same segment and understands how it was perceived to recommend the optimal price. It also offers a solution to get a 360-degree view of the client’s sales to optimize price points.
