Global Biopharmaceutical Innovator Extends Pharma Specific Customer
Relationship Management (CRM) Solution
Cegedim Dendrite announced today that Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE:BMY)
has renewed its existing CRM and services contract and will be
implementing Mobile Intelligence™, Cegedim Dendrite’s flagship CRM
solution, to their Neurosciences sales team. The new agreement also
includes the continuance of data and technical support on their current
CRM tool. Cegedim Dendrite is the leading provider of Customer
Relationship Management (CRM) solutions that increase the efficiency and
effectiveness of sales forces in the pharmaceutical industry.
Bristol-Myers Squibb has been a Cegedim Dendrite customer since 1994. “We
are committed to helping Bristol-Myers Squibb achieve their growth goals,”
stated Laurent Schockmel, Cegedim Americas Chief Operating Officer. “Our
solutions and services are pharmaceutical by design and not a byproduct
of part-time focus or adaptations of horizontal sales force automation
tools. This enables Cegedim Dendrite to provide solutions that fit and
reflect the actual workflow of pharmaceutical managers, thereby yielding
productivity improvements while minimizing administrative tasks.”
Mobile Intelligence has been designed to improve the workflow of all
types of customer facing work forces within pharmaceutical and biotech
companies. It uses human-centered design principles and provides a
single view of the customer, empowering collaboration, fostering
communication and enhancing visibility across disciplines. Coupled with
Cegedim Dendrite’s Support Services, it is a powerful solution. Cegedim
Dendrite recently received the prestigious HDI® Support Center
Certification, the only company in its category to receive recognition
for outstanding customer service.
