Strategic Due Diligence

Health care systems are complex and multi-layered constructs which must be penetrated in depth in order to place products successfully. Knowledge of history, trends and current developments in the industry environment helps innovators to integrate their products into existing systems. Based on this, decisive decisions on sustainability and marketability must be made in the innovation process.

The challenge

Confidence in the decision-making process
In order to make strategic decisions, innovators rely on hypothesis-based analyses of market potentials and business models. They are confronted with the following key questions:

  • What is the current standard of care and how is the market shaped now and in the future?
  • Which sales and price potentials can be generated with the innovation?
  • How can an innovation be tested for market suitability quickly and cost-effectively?
  • How can the value story for investors and partners be supported by valuable data ?
  • What are the barriers to market access in the respective countries?

The solution

Comprehensive knowledge of the market
Industry-specific knowledge, medical expertise and know-how about current market trends - such as the future topic of digital health - form the basis for forward-looking market intelligence. At SKC consulting, we have a deep understanding of the diseases, their care and the resulting value stream for those involved in the healthcare system.

Translating knowledge into benefits
We use these skills to enrich existing knowledge with in-depth content and quantitative data and to broaden the perspective by presenting multiple perspectives. In this way, we enable organisations to analyse and understand issues in depth. Building on this, we jointly develop and test models (e.g. prototypes) that serve as a valid basis for accelerated and transparent decisions. Coupled with our strategic vision, we enable our clients to bring their ideas to market in a targeted manner, or to find alternative paths at an early stage.

Our approach

In order to generate sustainable value from analyses, we provide you with practical and transparent content with a logical structure. We combine the latest methodological knowledge with our agile working methods to filter out decision-relevant information in iterative loops.
