Introduction

The healthcare landscape has been subject to significant turbulence on account of a gamut of factors including escalating costs, widespread regulatory amendments, changing business models, and evolution of the patient-centric paradigm (with mobile computing, social media platforms, and “anytime-anywhere” information access).

Global life sciences industry is faced with narrowing margins, expiring patents for blockbuster drugs, dwindling drug pipeline, and rising adoption of personalized medicine as well as wearables. The European industry in particular is witnessing a spike in personalized medicine and several regulatory changes (around drug approvals, medical devices, pharmacovigilance, etc.), compounding the challenges for players in this market and compelling them to reengineer their strategic focus. This, in turn, is triggering the demand for analytics, data consolidation, and infrastructure & application modernization services.

Evolving technology mandate for healthcare enterprises is driving the need for relevant research and market intelligence on demand and supply trends in healthcare outsourcing across the three major market segments – payer, provider, and life sciences. Everest Group’s healthcare outsourcing research program addresses this market requirement by analyzing outsourcing trends and service provider capabilities specific to ITO in the healthcare vertical.

In this report, we analyze the capabilities of 15 leading ITO service providers specific to the European life sciences sector. These service providers are mapped on the Everest Group PEAK Matrix, which is a composite index of a range of distinct metrics related to a service provider’s capability and market success.
