Introduction

The healthcare landscape has been subject to significant turbulence on account of a gamut of factors, including escalating costs, widespread regulatory amendments, changing business models, and the 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 healthcare firms to adopt new technologies, and at the same time revamp their existing systems, processes, and interfaces.

As the technology mandate for healthcare 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 healthcare outsourcing across the three major market segments – payer, provider, and life sciences. Everest Group’s Healthcare and Life Sciences (HLS) IT research program addresses this market’s requirement by analyzing outsourcing trends and service provider capabilities specific to HLS IT.

In this report, we analyze the capabilities of 16 IT service providers specific to clinical and R&D IT services in the global life sciences 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.
