Event Overview:

As pharma companies have become increasingly global organizations, the need to integrate forecasts across the regional and global levels has grown. Country-level forecasts leverage detailed knowledge from individuals with experience in a market to make predictions at a more granular level, but oftentimes global forecast teams struggle to get full and timely information from these local market experts. A cumbersome ‘forecast submission’ process, complicated Excel spreadsheets, and version control issues make forecasting a huge headache for both global and regional teams.

In this webinar we’ll discuss how a pivot to “glocal” forecasting can more effectively engage regional affiliates in the forecast process. We’ll take a look at how real-time web tools make it simple and easy for affiliates to submit and update data. And we’ll provide actionable tips for how global and regional teams can build a joint forecast model that combines the best data and insights from both teams.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • How to use new tools to build real-time forecasts for regional and global teams
  • Tradeoffs between affiliate-led forecasts vs. global “top-down” control
  • How to move past the old-fashioned ‘submission process’ for regional forecasts
