Pharmaceuticals & Health Care

A.T. Kearney’s Pharmaceutical and Health Care practice focuses on the delivery of best-in-class consultancy to the Nordic market from a global perspective, with a keen eye on how these industries are developing across the world. Our clients include Nordic insurance companies, global pharmaceutical companies, international medical device companies and retailers, all of which have been affected by recent changes to the Health Care system.

For example, insurance companies are currently changing their offerings, and are exerting more control than ever before. This means that they have more room to manage their business. As a result, structured sourcing strategies and procurement approaches have become crucial aspects of the Health Care service.

At the same time, retail sector margins are shrinking, and even established parties in the US and the UK have broadened their offerings by adding different product categories. This has changed the competition game for pharmacies as they start to compete against these companies for general, over-the-counter drugs as well as, for prescription medicines.

We use our knowledge of market dynamics – from both the supplier and the customer side – and our insight into the entire value chain – from product innovation to delivery – to transform businesses so that they can deal with these new challenges. And our experience in business unit strategy, operations management and complexity management makes sure that the client receives an organic and flexible transformation that works. And lasts.
