Life sciences solutions leverage HP's depth and breadth of services and technology to help meet the challenges the industry faces

"HP consulting helped with implementation. They taught us some of the best practices that we had not learned theoretically . . . HP was the only company that really provided any assistance."

-- Kathy Serin
BMS Director Data Warehouse Design and Development

Challenges in the life sciences
Rising R&D costs and drug patent expirations are driving consolidation in the life sciences industry. At the same time, companies are pushing for internal R&D productivity and acceleration, and they are focusing on cost cutting, especially in business processes not directly related to R&D or sales and marketing, such as procurement, supply chain, and manufacturing. Meanwhile, there is also greater attention to patient-oriented marketing and overall sales and marketing productivity and effectiveness.

The HP response
HP solutions enable agility in the life sciences by helping to align IT infrastructure with business requirements. HP can ensure cost-effective flexibility and all-important stability at the infrastructure core. And HP solutions HP is ideally positioned to be the extend value and reach to every aspect of the life partner of choice in the life sciences enterprise.

  • The extended enterprise
  • IT and business governance
  • Technology and infrastructure
A family of life sciences solutions

Pharmaceutical solutions

Discovery
Advances in biotechnology are inextricably tied to advances in high-performance computing. High performance computing has become the third leg of traditional scientific research, along with theory and experimentation. HP leads the market in providing infrastructures for applications that support an in-depth understanding of biological and chemical processes. In addition, HP has a deep understanding of grid technologies and how they can be designed to handle massive amounts of data in different formats and different locations, often owned by different companies.

Clinical trials
HP can deliver services and solutions to augment the clinical trials process, including mobility solutions for remote data capture, document management system design, and implementation for regulatory submissions. These solutions reduce the time it takes to register and prove the efficacy and safety of new products. In addition, HP is working with thought leaders in clinical operations to define tomorrow's patient-centric healthcare collaboration networks. Our collaborative business infrastructure is at the heart of our thinking.

Sales force automation
HP sales force effectiveness solutions enable reps to spend more quality time in front of medical practitioners and to make better use of non-customer-facing time - thus addressing the decreasing return on sales force investments many companies are experiencing. HP sales force solutions improve coordination of face-to-face and Web-based activity. They increase the value of customer interaction by providing more accurate data capture and feedback at the point of contact, as well as offering one cohesive view of the company to the customer.

Extended enterprise solutions
Extended enterprise solutions build on HP's years of experience as a manufacturing company and its work on customer projects. We capture internal HP best practices, package them with strategic partner offerings, and jointly deliver business solutions through our global services organization and our partners.

Procurement and sourcing
Our expertise in supply chain management includes the largest implementation of Ariba and the worldwide deployment of management, repair, and operations (MRO) procurement applications. HP has extensive experience with catalog management. We have implemented processes, tools, and technology to analyze spending as well as to reduce inventory and procurement operational costs.

Product lifecycle management
HP product lifecycle management solutions enable multi-enterprise, Web-enabled new product generation teams to collaborate - reducing costs and speeding time to market. Our secure supply solutions leverage industry-standard Configuration Management II (CMII) common business processes and maximize the use of existing implementations throughout the product lifecycle.

Supply chain management (SCM)
HP SCM solutions can help you increase profitability, reduce lead time and costs, outsource non-core functionality, and enhance supply chain management and collaboration capabilities. HP's world-class manufacturing experience can help shorten the learning curve, improve order cycle time and responsiveness, reduce inventory-driven costs, and increase capacity and inventory turn.

Demand chain management
HP demand chain solutions integrate demand-driven customer-facing processes with back office and supply chain systems such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain management (SCM). These solutions include channel management, order management, transportation and logistics, demand planning and forecasting, and customer relationship management (CRM).

Integrated collaborative business infrastructure
HP offers a portfolio of solutions that offer a variety of ways to collaborate. HP customer transformation solutions help define how and where to collaborate. HP enterprise application integration (EAI) solutions avoid the cost and complexity of point-to-point application integration. The HP Supplier Collaboration Hub provides the platform for collaborative SCM. The benefits of this collaborative approach can be seen across the entire enterprise in reduced design time, reduced procurement costs, decreased downtime, and improved customer satisfaction.

IT and business governance solutions
HP assesses, recommends, and implements business aligned IT infrastructure services and solutions that reduce spending and leverage IT's ability to enable business growth. We assist you in focusing on core competencies through outsourcing and in achieving operational excellence by extending the enterprise. In developing these services and solutions, HP has leveraged its own experience with mergers and divestitures to facilitate efficient asset acquisition and divestiture.

Technology and infrastructure solutions
HP designs, builds, integrates, manages, and evolves IT infrastructures that are highly available, secure, and agile. These infrastructures incorporate HP mobile and wireless technologies, enabling IT organizations to respond rapidly to changes in the business environment. HP OpenView helps your organization meet ever increasing user demand. Security and business continuity solutions allow IT to balance investments against the risk of security breaches and disasters. Consolidation and migration solutions reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and help maximize return on IT investment (RoIT).

Key differentiators
HP is ideally positioned to be the partner of choice in the life sciences. We are the leading supplier of computing solutions for life sciences research. We are able to leverage the expertise of our own internal world-class manufacturing operations in developing and deploying solutions for the life sciences. We produce market-leading mobile computing products and have significant experience in integrating their use into a wide variety of organizations.

Number one in life sciences research solutions
According to International Data Corporation (IDC), HP is the leading supplier of computing solutions for life sciences research. HP has worked on the Human Genome Project with many of the major research centers worldwide, including the world's largest genomic sequencing facilities at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in the United Kingdom and Celera Genomics in the United States. Under these partnerships, the time to map the full human genome was dramatically compressed through aggressive, large-scale application of sequencing and computing technology from HP.

Most of the leading commercial and public genomics and proteomics centers, such as the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, the Whitehead Institute Center for Genome Research, Genoscope, and GeneProt, use HP systems either exclusively or primarily in solutions designed and implemented by HP Services. HP solutions also power a number of major pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies such as Genentech, Roche, Bayer, Merck, and Pharmacia.

HP allows you to demand more - more accountability, more agility, and a better return on IT.
