Pharmaceutical
The rise of the payer-led health economy is presenting significant challenges for pharmaceutical companies.
Whilst the majority have rationalised by cutting the field sales force and creating Key Account Management teams, the inexorable shift from prescriber to payer and the growing fragmentation and regionalisation of decision making is presenting new challenges.
As governments globally announce cuts in public health funding and ever tighter controls over drug pricing, organisations need to address a raft of challenges from the rise of generics to the implications of parallel imports.
How can Azzurri help?
Consolidate global networks - Multi-national organisations headquartered in the UK can consolidate all global networking through one organisation responsible for coordinating with multiple international carriers. One invoice streamlines payment processes, whilst users have one central point for 24x7 support calls. The centralised route also enables an organisation to impose control over the acquisition of network infrastructure driving up overall resilience. Find out more »
Improve collaboration – The new health economy demands excellent cross organisation communication, from R&D to Key Account Managers. Pharmaceutical companies can leverage technologies such as unified communications and presence to improve company wide visibility. Find out more »
Exploit investments - Evaluating the existing infrastructure can help organisations sweat existing assets and drive out costs. From removing redundant fixed lines to rationalising voice/data requirements, an audit provides a quick route to cost containment. Find out more »
Control Costs – Opting for a proven managed service provides financial savings from day one. With fixed fees for technology management and support, as well as transparent communication costs and built-in technology refreshes, organisations gain unprecedented cost control and the agility to utilise state of the art technology to support new services.

Azzurri’s support has been as close to perfect as possible. It runs extremely smoothly, demonstrated by the fact I can’t remember last time I had to report a fault.
