Medical device manufacturers are faced with considerable commercial complexity: a large, heterogeneous product offering that ranges from CAT scanners to cotton wads and a diverse portfolio of customers that includes hospitals, research institutions, and general practitioners. Since individual accounts are often comparatively small, most sales reps find themselves serving a higher number of customers than their peers in other B2B industries. What is more, competitive pressure varies greatly across countries, product categories, and customer types. In this cluttered situation, an easily accessible fact base is crucial for good decisions that balance customer satisfaction with profitability targets.
