Pioneering family-owned Boehringer Ingelheim is making use of cutting-edge data management services provided by Capgemini in its work on breakthrough therapies.
Boehringer Ingelheim specialises in areas of unmet medical need in Human Pharma, Animal Health, and Biopharmaceutical Contract Manufacturing and has focused on advanced technologies to discover new ways of introducing technology to core business processes.
As part of its Dataland program, Boehringer Ingelheim invests in data-related initiatives to strengthen its foothold in the digital world. Leveraging data has the potential to transform drug development and the patient experience. Several units within the organisation were already successfully working with data, but Boehringer Ingelheim wanted to scale its usage across the entire company. This ambition required a strong technology foundation and modern infrastructure, as well as clear processes and responsibilities in the area of data governance.
“This is a programme that we’re running at Boehringer Ingelheim that has the goal of building an end-to-end ecosystem for data across all business units,” explains Boehringer Ingelheim’s Head of Data Management Services, Bruno Rizzuti. “Mainly, it is a cloud-based ecosystem that we’re building for our data needs not just for today but the future in the years to come. The idea is to create a trusted environment not only for our regular use cases but also for those that require more, let’s say, flexibility and the capabilities that the technology in the cloud can provide.”
