Digital Transformation
Services to help digitally transform your organization.
AI Innovation Labs
Use AI to solve your toughest business challenges.
The Challenge
A top 10 pharmaceutical company was looking for ways to better utilize AI across its clinical development and commercial teams.
How Saama Helped
Saama set up a series of ideation workshops and stakeholder interviews to identify key business challenges which could benefit from AI technology. The top three ideas were then selected — which included copay fraud, predicting serious infections in rheumatoid arthritis patients, and sales analytics — for an 8-12 week ideation lab to develop AI models for these challenges. These models were then put into production to see whether they would produce the intended results.
Impact
12 weeks from ideation to production for novel AI models.
Analytics and Reporting Services
Building analytics and reports that fit your needs.
The Challenge
A global pharmaceutical company wanted study planning and risk-based monitoring reports and dashboards that teams could use alongside existing operational and safety dashboards.
How Saama Helped
Saama built a study planning dashboard that allowed teams to narrow down potential sites and investigators — from over 60,000 to under 6,000 — for upcoming infectious disease studies. Saama also built a risk-based monitoring dashboard that allowed central monitors to oversee and drill into risks across over 100 studies. These dashboards were tightly linked to the existing operational dashboards, allowing for greater collaboration between monitors and clinical operations teams.
Impact
Accelerate time to market by reducing start-up and close-out cycle times.
Technology Services
Gain greater insight into your trial performance to inform future study designs.
The Challenge
A major pharmaceutical company was looking for a partner to help actively monitor the performance of ongoing studies, compare them to historical study performance, and create a model to improve future study designs.
How Saama Helped
Saama’s experts created a data mart that integrated current and historical clinical trial data, as well as publicly available information from PubMed. Users can now access and analyze this data from a single location. Saama’s technology services team was able to analyze the data on an ongoing basis — based on key KPIs — to measure current study performance and provide inputs for further study designs.
Impact
Deeper insights into study performance that improve future study designs.
Consulting
Helping life science organizations think strategically about their technology investments.
How Saama Helped
An oncology-focused biotechnology company wanted to understand how to optimize their clinical and commercial processes with data and technology, seeking an edge on competitors and establishing a strong foundation for future growth.
The Challenge
Saama’s experts conducted internal stakeholder interviews to understand the organization’s digital aspirations and current capabilities across the business value chain. Saama also conducted a landscape analysis including peers and industry-leading organizations, identified gaps and best practices, and conducted executive workshops to prioritize digital initiatives for the organization.
Impact
Developed digital roadmap to set up the organization for future growth.
