IT plays an important role in the drug discovery process. Various IT tools have evolved to become core components of the modern drug discovery process. Advances in IT enable researchers to screen drug candidates, predict drug responses quickly and lower failure rates. IT has also reduced the costs, increased the speed, and improved the productivity of the drug discovery research and development process. IT applications in drug discovery help pharmaceutical companies to increase their competitiveness in the global marketplace. The major benefits of IT enabled drug discovery are as follows:
Improved target identification and lead validation
Reduced research and development (R&D) costs
Reduced attrition rates by predicting efficacy and toxicity accurately
According to the present market scenario, most of the pharmaceutical companies have invested in customer relationship management (CRM) tools and have ignored investment in predictive modeling. Subsequently, companies only have data repositories but no real-time decision making intelligence to strategize. If predictive analytics are implemented, all pharmaceutical companies can correlate the insights from CRM to provide an all-round view of doctors’ prescribing habits.
Pharmaceutical companies with limited IT resources will either host a solution, or engage a technology consultant to develop the in-house skills and capabilities to develop the predictive analytics unit. By hosting a solution, the technology provider maintains the predictive models and a secure infrastructure. However, the company supplies the data, collaborates on the predictive framework and owns the deliverables/results. With an increase in experience, operations could be shifted in-house.

The leading and lagging indicators are usually covered in the dashboard. Multi-channel
engagement/follow-through is about deepening the customers’ engagement with the brand. It is about understanding business performance and results as an achievement objective and gauging whether customers are satisfied and open to further communication and engagement.
Leading indicators will measure the sales representatives’ performance on their given
responsibilities. Lagging indicators will measure the customer response. These metrics should be overseen by the managers of each of the sales representatives. Sales representatives should also compare their benchmarked performance against their peers’ averages to improve.
