Veeva Network Product Master Delivers Foundation for Effective Product Management and Better Enterprise Visibility in Life Sciences

May 18, 2016

New application makes it easier to manage, use, and access trusted product information globally

PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Veeva Systems (NYSE: VEEV) today introduced Veeva Network Product Master, the latest addition to the Veeva Network suite of master data management (MDM) applications built specifically for life sciences. Veeva Network Product Master is a cloud-based solution that provides a flexible global view of product information. Alongside Veeva Network Customer Master for customer data, Veeva Network Product Master signals the company’s expansion into multi-domain MDM for life sciences.

Managing pharmaceutical products through their lifecycle can be difficult, costly, and complex across multiple teams, stakeholders, and geographies. Elements such as brand information, trade names, groupings, and configurations can vary by country, system, and business area. Consequently, life sciences organizations cannot easily understand markets, launch new products, analyze market performance, or ensure coordinated global branding and messaging.

Veeva Network Product Master solves this by helping enterprise teams manage, use, and access accurate product information across geographies. Now life sciences companies can have a clear view into product definitions, groupings, and hierarchies for effective product management and better enterprise visibility wherever the product is used worldwide.

Veeva Network Product Master can be used as a commercial product master or as a R&D product master. With a central and authoritative product view, life sciences can achieve many benefits, including, for example, the ability to accurately calculate the global market potential and market share of a drug or comply with reporting requirements.

“Veeva Network Product Master provides a better approach to managing product data and establishing consistency in global branding, product launches, and competitive analysis,” said Harte Nielson, director of Veeva Network Strategy. “Life sciences can move beyond spreadsheets and legacy MDM systems with a trusted product master reference to scale go-to-market programs globally and streamline local execution in every country.”

Veeva’s continued innovation in industry-specific MDM is informed by the requirements of leading life sciences companies worldwide. With more than 40 customers, Veeva Network is steadily replacing legacy toolkits as a multi-domain MDM solution built specifically for life sciences.
