Doctor’s analysis:
Doctors are key to every pharma companies sales plan be it for new product introductions or
pushing the current products. In that regard it is important to keep a close tab on sales reps ( or
medical representatives) in the field. Product detailing and product sampling metrics becomes a
good way to get insight into companies interaction with doctors.

This is just the tip of iceberg, there is so much more that can be done with the data that pharma
companies have. Business intelligence can give insights which will be impossible for a human
eye. Moreover ease of using various reports make it very useful for Top and middle management.
