Pharma & Health Care

Pharma: Your purchasing - The competition starts in purchasing
The challenges in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry have been increasing for years due to rising cost pressure and falling margins. The high level of dynamism in this internationally highly competitive market, which is characterized by takeovers, is mainly due to the increasing requirements resulting from government regulations and tougher competition, for example due to tenders by health insurance companies.
We know the difficult framework conditions, products and the challenges for supply chains and buyers. You too can benefit from our extensive experience from projects with research-based companies and manufacturers of generics in order to secure profit margins.
Healthcare: Your purchase - For the benefit of patients and growth
The healthcare sector is one of the most important economic sectors in Germany today. However, although the sector has been growing for years due to ever-increasing expenditure on healthcare, almost every second German hospital consistently generates negative results. As the second-largest cost block in hospitals, material resources play a significant role here. There is considerable potential for savings in this area in particular, which can be leveraged through a targeted reduction in the number of variants in consultation with doctors and nurses and optimized ordering processes.
