Life Sciences and Health Care

The world healthcare market offers many great opportunities. Rising income levels across most parts of the world are pushing up patient aspirations and demand. However, pharmaceutical firms have reason to be concerned about the future. The recent failure of research to deliver a steady stream of blockbusters leaves organizations facing a dangerous combination of high costs and falling revenues as drugs fall out of patent protection. Drug safety remains key, and competition within the industry is intensifying. Periods of market exclusivity enjoyed by drugs that are first to market are increasingly diminished with the swift onslaught of fast followers. Complexity is on the rise – for example the pharmaceutical industry faces the increasing fragmentation of their customer base; pharmaceutical firms now have to sell not just to physicians but to a multi–tiered and networked audience.

These industry challenges leave pharmaceutical firms increasingly in the spotlight, and often under fire, as they tread the fine line between delivering life changing value to consumers amidst the backlash of being one of the most profitable of all industries. Our team of Life sciences experts are able to share insights into the most critical business issues facing you right now.

XTSGROUP helps technology solutions leader redefine its supply chain strategies. In the past few years, the Manufacturing sector has experienced periods of dramatic, accelerated change and a strong need for continuous innovation. Companies have moved from traditional manufacturer to the more complex roles of integration, subcontracting development, assembly and sales, and are often dealing with multiple distribution channels. In addition, manufacturers are challenged with:

  • Greater customer demand
  • Ongoing consolidation
  • Product diversification and price pressures.
  • Large, outdated application portfolios
  • Increasing competition from new entrants around the globe
Threatened by these times of economic hardship, manufacturers are focused on top and bottom line growth, as well as improving sales productivity, marketing effectiveness, and customer relationship management initiatives.

XTSGROUP is helping companies with revenue growth measures including the mining of customer data to ensure optimal forecasting, customer satisfaction, and improved marketing and sales efforts.

  • High Technology
  • Diversified Manufacturing

Public Sector Technology, Media and Telecommunications

While segments of the telecom industry have faced intense economic challenges, overall spending in the U.S. rose by 4.9% in 2003. Double–digit increases in wireless services, equipment support, video and audio–conferencing, and high–speed Internet access countered the decreases in equipment spending and local and toll service revenues.

In addition, media and entertainment companies are showing spiking trends in DVD sales and rentals, TiVo continues to threaten advertising, HDTV is maturing, iTunes and its competitors are seeing tremendous success, while traditional TV audiences seem to be declining.

XTSGroup’s experienced Telecom, Media & Entertainment (TME) group helps customers better leverage technology and their own resources to overcome market challenges, capitalize on growth opportunities, and transform their business to achieve strategic goals.

Focusing on the Cable, Wireline, Wireless, Media and Entertainment industries, our expertise spans a wide range of strategic areas: Voice Over Internet Protocol, operational support systems, billing support systems, network management services, intellectual content management and digital supply chains, and ERP applications.
XTSGroup offers clients a comprehensive set of solutions that includes:

  • Business Transformation Portfolio Assessment (BTPA)
  • Intellectual Capital Management Services
  • IP Telephony Subscriber Management
  • Security Management
  • Service Assurance for Telcos
  • Service Availability Management (SAM)

Retail

Many retailers today are struggling to increase top–line sales, maintain customer loyalty, and meet profit targets, while the market continues to be over–stored.
