minutes to read

Behind every successful product launch for pharmaceutical and medical device companies, there is typically a dedicated Promotional Review Committee (PRC) and an established process to efficiently approve customer-facing materials.

Of the many challenges that can arise during a product launch, finding a reliable consulting company and the right technology vendor that will meet your needs while staying cost-effective is notoriously difficult.

That's why Papercurve is actively working towards closing this gap in the industry by offering an all-in-one platform for life science companies to easily create, review, and share promotional materials at scale.

To complement our technology, we partner with Govise, Inc. to provide support in medical promotional reviews and medical affairs consulting.

Assembling Your Product’s Promotional Review Committee: Considerations for Outsourcing Medical Promotional Review

Having a promotional review committee (PRC) and process is critical for pharmaceutical promotional and advertising materials. However, many organizations struggle to create and implement a process that is collaborative, cost-effective, efficient, and practical. It is standard practice to draw from existing organizational resources in established functions to conduct promotional review, but for Medical Affairs, dedicated resources for this role can pose a challenge.  Rarer still is identifying talent within Medical Affairs that has the broad experience and specialized expertise required for success in the medical promotional reviewer role.

Trying to assemble a team from existing medical affairs resources requires you to pull from established roles and away from other critical strategic objectives.  Additionally, in-house staff cannot always handle the influx of work that often exceeds the capacity needed to truly support the needs of a strong marketing campaign. This is especially true for new campaigns and new product launches where the need to support our marketing colleagues rapidly escalates.

With more and more pharmaceutical and device companies using social media to market their products, the demand for timely, accurate, and experienced medical promotional review support has never been more needed. That’s why pharmaceutical and medical device companies are increasingly considering third-party specialized firms to both elevate the expertise and support level for their commercial teams.  This approach also serves as a cost-effective alternative to adding headcount or repurposing existing Medical Affairs talent to support this important function.
