Introduction
The healthcare and life sciences (HLS) landscape has been subject to significant turbulence on account of a gamut of factors including escalating costs, widespread regulatory amendments, changing business models, and evolution of the patient-centric paradigm (with mobile computing, social media platforms, and “anytime-anywhere” information access). This combination of disruptive and legacy factors has driven HLS firms to adopt new technologies and, at the same time, revamp their existing systems, processes, and interfaces. The digital play has moved from being a “nice-to-have” to a “necessary to survive and thrive” requirement in the modern age.
As the technology mandate for HLS enterprises evolves, so do their relationships with IT service providers. This, in turn, is driving the need for relevant research and market intelligence on demand and supply trends in HLS IT across the three major market segments – payer, provider, and life sciences. Everest Group’s HLS IT research program addresses this market requirement by analyzing outsourcing trends and service provider capabilities specific to HLS IT.
In this report, we analyze the capabilities of 15 IT service providers specific to the global life sciences digital space. These service providers are mapped on the Everest Group Performance | Experience | Ability | Knowledge (PEAK) Matrix, which is a composite index of a range of distinct metrics related to a provider’s capability and market success.
