- Fit-Gap analysis of requirements to existing system capabilities
- Capability Landscape across the business identifying gaps and relative priorities
- Prioritized focus areas to improve the flow of data and increase data integrity, traceability, and reuse

Technology Selection
We provide independent advice and support to help you choose the right technology to support your business, including:
- Business analysis and process mapping
- Defining and prioritizing user requirements
- Developing a robust, tangible business case for technology investment
- Supporting the technology and vendor selection process
Technology selection starts with documenting detailed requirements linked to business use cases. Using our proprietary database of lab informatics technologies, we compile an initial list of those candidates with the best match to the requirements and coordinate initial demonstrations. The most promising suppliers are shortlisted to proceed to a Request for Proposal and in-depth, use-case driven, workshops to identify the preferred solution. We help you develop a tangible, quantifiable Return on Investment (ROI) analysis which forms the basis of a robust business case.

Data Strategy
The technologies and platforms available for generating data continue to increase the speed, volume, diversity and richness of data creation. A successful data strategy enables you to extract the value from this data to increase efficiency, make better decisions, and drive innovation.
The key elements of an effective data strategy include:
- Set direction and priorities
- Drive alignment and communication
- Define use cases and data goals
- Understand the maturity of your data assets, process and culture
- Establish processes to integrate your data, making it accessible for analytics & AI
Our Data Strategy Development & Implementation service offers a comprehensive approach to enhancing how your organization uses its data, tailored to your business goals and operating model. Our consultants have lab experience and scientific domain knowledge from R&D to clinical operations so we understand your challenges and can help you illustrate what success looks like. We are also experienced in helping companies implement the FAIR principles in a way that is appropriate for your organizational policies, goals, and technical capabilities. This process is grounded in our extensive industry experience with similar data-centric initiatives as well as cross-industry collaborations and consortia (Allotrope, Pistoia, IUPAC, etc.).
Through a series of interactive workshops, we gather use cases from your team and help you develop:
- A vision and mission for data
- Gap-analysis of existing vs. required digital capabilities.
- Processes to institute and maintain data standards and data governance
- Roadmap and action plan to achieve the vision
- Key use cases to showcase and measure progress along the way
Whether you’re in search of expert advice to devise your data strategy, help with ongoing data projects, or gain insights on post-implementation enhancements, our team is committed to equipping you with the essential tools and knowledge for a successful data-driven transformation and readiness for the digital opportunities ahead.

On-going Support
The evolution and maturation of your science and operations does not stop once your research platform is implemented. Ensuring continual optimization of your systems and configuration of new applications and features can place time and personnel burdens onto an organization, especially if on-staff expertise is absent. ProPharma can provide on-going management services to supplement in this context.
