A mid-sized pharma company operating across 3 therapeutic areas saw its global pricing system being decommissioned. The scope included the whole company, which comprises one hundred twenty-six (126) countries, implementing Model N Global Pricing Management (GPM) together with integrations across internal systems, such as MDM and PowerBI, as well as Model N Global Tendering Management (GTM).
- Legacy platform decommissioning required migrating pricing functionalities to a modern, scalable global solution to ensure continuity and integration with key systems
- Current pricing operations were fragmented, relying on various excels and disconnected tools, leading to inefficiency and lack of automation
- Critical workflows lack compliance and automation, such as price validation and approval, increasing the risk of errors and operational costs
- Data inconsistencies between internal systems and public sources threaten pricing accuracy, audit reliability, and regulatory compliance (e.g., health authority price certificates)
- Fragmentation caused governance issues, leading to higher operational overhead, reduced agility, and risk of internal/external audits
- Marbls successfully delivered end-to-end project management to implement Model N GPM solution by:
- Gathering requirements throughout functional workshops for GPM, IRP & LSO and Reports & Analytics
- Designing the future solution including automated approval workflows and enhanced functionalities
- Providing leadership across testing, training, and change management activities
- Establishing centralized and consistent processes that enhance collaboration across different departments
- Improving Data Accuracy & Compliance, ensuring alignment between internal systems (MDM-GPM-GTM)
- Successfully implemented Model N GPM solution by:
- Developed 3 automated workflows for over 100 countries aligned with the pricing policy & governance
- Data accuracy and consistency saw an impressive improvement, eliminating most discrepancies between internal systems and external pricing systems:
- > 1500 SKUs migrated
- > 15k pricing records migrated (historical and current)
- > 70 country rules created
