Overview: Medley Pharmaceuticals & SANeForce
Medley Pharmaceuticals operates in a highly competitive pharmaceutical landscape where field execution, data accuracy, and timely insights directly influence performance. With a growing sales force and expanding doctor coverage, Medley recognized the need for a more structured and unified system to manage day-to-day field activities.
SANeForce, a pharma-focused Sales Force Automation platform, partnered with Medley to digitize and standardize its field operations. By introducing a mobile-first, validation-driven ecosystem, SANeForce enabled Medley to bring planning, reporting, expense control, and analytics onto a single, connected platform.
Operational Gaps: Before vs After Digital Enablement
| Before Implementation | After Implementation |
|---|---|
| Unstructured tour planning and daily activity tracking | Centralized planning with standardized daily reporting |
| Inconsistent call flow and reporting discipline | Controlled, sequential call reporting |
| Manual expense submission and approval delays | Automated expense workflows with faster turnaround |
| Multiple, inconsistent doctor records | Single, unified doctor database |
| Limited control over samples and inputs | Validated input tracking |
| Delayed, manual data entry | Real-time, system-driven reports |
| Lack of integrated engagement and market insights | Built-in E-Quiz and RCPA visibility |
