From May 2019 to May 2024
Dendrite International, Inc. (NASDAQ:DRTE), a leading
provider of pharmaceutical industry solutions, today announced that
Schering Corporation, a subsidiary of Schering-Plough Corporation, has
signed a five-year agreement to enhance VISION, its proprietary sales
force effectiveness (SFE) and business planning solution, for its
U.S.-based pharmaceutical field sales organization. As a result,
Dendrite will seamlessly integrate components of its proven .NET
framework with Schering-Plough's VISION system to facilitate the sales
force in managing customer information and recording call activity.
Dendrite's .NET framework provides compelling capability to make
sales representatives and managers more efficient and productive in
their selling activities. Field sales organizations can benefit from
Dendrite's revolutionary system navigation, built on human-centered
design principles that mirror the workflow of the representative. By
matching sales force tools to workflow, representatives can maximize
the number of prescriber visits and the quality of each prescriber
interaction.
Augmenting the expanded capabilities of Schering-Plough's VISION
system will be Sample Guardian(TM), Dendrite's integrated home office
sample management and reconciliation solution. Pharmaceutical
companies benefit from having a flexible and cost effective
alternative for tracking, analyzing, reporting, and storing all drug
sample activity data. Sample Guardian, and associated custom reports
developed together with Dendrite, assists pharmaceutical companies
with ongoing efforts to comply with Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
and Prescription Drug Marketing Act (PDMA) regulations.
"Leveraging Dendrite for pharma-specific business process
enhancements will give Schering-Plough access to the latest and most
effective technologies, proven methodologies and best practices, and
support through highly trained personnel with extensive pharmaceutical
experience, allowing for continued focus on their core business of
developing therapies and having a positive impact on patient lives,"
said Natasha Giordano, president of global accounts for Dendrite.
