PDI, Inc.

PDI uses best-in-class cloud-based Informatica data integration solution to make sales decisions based on accurate, up-to-date view of sales data, including sample reconciliation, prescriber validation, and payroll.

PDI, Inc. provides sales and marketing commercialization services for established and emerging biopharmaceutical companies.

Challenges

  • Increase value of data by streamlining and accelerating decision making
  • Automate the replication of Salesforce CRM data collected in the cloud daily to a reliable and secure reporting infrastructure
  • Optimize value of data by ensuring reporting data is accurate, complete, and up to date
  • Adopt a 100 percent software as a service (SaaS) integration solution aligned with PDI’s mission to embrace cloud technology where possible
Without Informatica Cloud, PDI’s sales teams would be working blind. This flexible, easy-to-use SaaS-based integration service is helping the company achieve a significant return on data, drive sales in areas that were otherwise down, and increase margins by eliminating on-premise integration technology.
