case study: GLOBAL BIOPHARMA COMPANY OVERHAULS IC ADMINISTRATION

THE CHALLENGE: A global biopharma company with four sales teams was managing their IC efforts across a handful of platforms (e.g., Excel for scenario planning, a business intelligence tool for reporting, a separate cloud-based platform for document management). This disjointed approach limited commercial leaders’ ability to agilely adjust the IC plan. It also hindered sales reps’ ability to see how their activities would correlate into payouts.
THE SOLUTION:Beghou worked with this company’s commercial leaders and field sales team to bring all the company’s incentive compensation administration efforts into Mainsail IC. The platform became the hub of the company’s IC data. Visualizations the company previously built in its business intelligence tool moved to Mainsail IC. Reps gained access to “what-if” calculators so they could clearly map the impact of various scenarios. And managers ran MBO programs and rep performance reviews in the platform.
THE FUTURE:As a flexible platform, Mainsail IC allows this biopharma company to adjust its IC plans frequently. The platform also helps leadership maintain visibility into overall performance and ensures reps have access to the information they need to drive results. As the company’s products mature – and it introduces new therapies – Mainsail IC is built to scale with the company’s growth and support its increasingly complex IC administration needs.
