Longstanding partnership expands to bring Veeva Network Customer
Master to HighPoint customers
EAST NORRITON, Pa. & PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Veeva Systems and HighPoint Solutions are expanding their partnership
beyond Veeva CRM to bring Veeva Network Customer Master to more life
sciences companies. HighPoint, which has a long and successful track
record implementing master data management (MDM) systems, will now offer
its customers implementation services for Veeva Network, the only MDM
application developed exclusively for the life sciences industry.
Before Veeva Network, the life sciences industry was limited to
one-size-fits-all MDM toolkits, requiring custom development and complex
integrations. Veeva Network Customer Master offers a purpose-built
application that is tailored to the specific needs of life sciences
companies. Without the need for heavy customization, it’s quick to
deploy and easy to use. And, its multitenant cloud architecture ensures
customers always benefit from new capabilities Veeva continually
delivers, keeping them ahead of changing business needs and compliance
requirements.
“Since 2007, our partnership with Veeva has enabled us to deliver the
most innovative, industry-specific solutions available to our clients
and backed by the company’s commitment to customer success,” said Chris
Colapietro, HighPoint’s executive vice president of technology. “We are
pleased to expand our relationship with Veeva’s customer master
solution. Veeva Network offers a single system for harmonized processes
and worldwide visibility plus the flexibility to meet local market
needs, making it the optimal solution for life sciences.”
Compiling accurate customer master data has been a constant struggle for
life sciences companies. While some have deployed custom MDM systems in
silos by country, others make do with spreadsheets and manual processes
that increase complexity and risk. Veeva Network cleanses, standardizes,
and de-duplicates healthcare professional and healthcare organization
data from multiple systems and data sources globally to arrive at a
single, consolidated customer master record. A global data model with
country-level configuration provides both central control and local
flexibility, eliminating the need to deploy and manage separate systems.
It’s part of Veeva Commercial Cloud and fully integrated with Veeva CRM,
ensuring that critical customer information is always available to sales
and marketing users when they need it most.
“Well-recognized and experienced in MDM solutions consulting, HighPoint
has been helping life sciences organizations address the challenge of
maintaining a single, complete customer view for nearly a decade,” said
Dan Goldsmith, Veeva’s chief strategy officer. “The company brings a
strong vision and the depth of industry and technical expertise
companies need.” Eric Letts, HighPoint’s vice president of MDM Solutions
added, “Veeva Network is a next-generation MDM solution that’s not only
powerful but also easy to use and implement.”
HighPoint customers range from top 10 pharmaceutical companies to
biotechs and include Allergan, Bayer, GSK, Johnson & Johnson, Novartis,
Pfizer, Shire, Teva, Vertex, and Zoetis. The company has already started
working with its clients to adopt Veeva Network Customer Master globally.
