In the complex, dynamic world of healthcare, commercial teams are challenged to perform multiple feats: launch new products, gain formulary status, increase margins, expand market share, and outwit competitors — usually against impossibly tight deadlines.
Now, a commercial organization with more projects than people to manage them can speed results and shorten their list by outsourcing a project to a team of graduate students from the USC Healthcare Decision Analysis & Biopharmaceutical Marketing programs.
The USC Enterprise Team Projects team consists of 5-7 graduate students who contribute approximately 1,200 hours to the effort over four months.
Projects can be structured around problems or opportunities including new product commercialization, value and access, pricing and reimbursement, competitive intelligence, product marketing, brand strategy, pipeline and business development, and other key business areas.
