Use Case | Integrated Financial Planning in pharma: Introduction of a new medication

 

Integrated financial planning plays a crucial role in the pharmaceutical industry to ensure the financial stability, efficiency and growth strategies of companies. Here is an example of how integrated financial planning can be beneficial in the pharmaceutical industry:

Scenario: Introduction of a new medication

For example, suppose a pharmaceutical company is planning to launch an innovative medication for the treatment of a previously inadequately treated disease. The development, clinical trials and approval processes have required significant resources. Now the company faces the challenge of successfully bringing the medication to market, scaling production and ensuring financial stability at the same time.

This is where the advantages of integrated financial planning come into play:

Resource allocation: Integrated financial planning enables the company to manage all relevant financial data in one central system. This includes capital expenditure, operating costs, marketing budgets and much more. By connecting this data, the company can allocate resources more efficiently and ensure that there are enough resources to increase production and get to market.

Sales forecasts: By analysing historical data, market trends and competitive information, the company can make accurate sales forecasts. This helps to determine realistic revenues from the new medication and simplifies planning for the coming quarters or years.

Cost control: Integrated financial planning makes it possible to monitor and control costs in detail. This is particularly important as the production of the new medication may involve variable costs that depend on demand. The company can react by adjusting production capacities while maximizing profitability.

Scenario analysis: Integrated financial planning allows different scenarios to be modeled. The company can perform “what-if” analyses to understand the potential impact of uncertainties such as market fluctuations or regulatory changes. On this basis, risk minimization strategies can be developed.

Investment decisions: If the launch of the new medicine requires international expansion or partnerships, integrated financial planning can help make informed investment decisions. Different growth scenarios can be simulated and the financial impact evaluated.

In summary, integrated financial planning in the pharmaceutical industry can help to use resources efficiently, maximize profitability, ensure financial stability and make informed decisions related to new medication launches. This enables the company to react agilely to the dynamics of the health care market and ensure long-term success.
