Case Study: Idorsia Pharmaceuticals achieves a connected, intelligent enterprise to accelerate drug development with SAP SuccessFactors

How Does a Connected Enterprise Foster Innovation in Pharmaceutical Development

Idorsia Pharmaceuticals needed to build a connected enterprise to accelerate drug discovery and development, integrating pharma development, HR, and finance in the cloud to enable real-time data, transparency, and a first-class user experience. To meet this challenge it turned to SAP SuccessFactors and other SAP cloud solutions to provide integrated, automated, and intelligent processes across the organization.

Using SAP SuccessFactors as part of a broader SAP cloud implementation (including SAP S/4HANA, SAP Cloud Platform, SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, and SAP Concur), Idorsia deployed a single, integrated global SAP system across Switzerland, the United States, Japan, China, and Germany that delivers real-time data access, improved compliance, automated expense and travel management, and more effective talent management. The SAP SuccessFactors‑enabled solution increased transparency and cross-team collaboration, freed employees from administrative tasks so they can focus on advancing four late‑stage compounds, and supported Idorsia’s transition into a scalable, agile biopharmaceutical company.
