Breakaway Technologies, a business performance management consulting firm and a leading provider of gross-to-net solutions to the pharmaceutical manufacturers, today announced the launch of the new version of its enterprise Gross-to-Net Solution, running on the Breakaway SDF. The SDF (or Solution Development Framework) is a Breakaway-developed platform that provides accelerated access to enterprise-grade multi-user applications running on in-memory OLAP platforms. SDF-enabled Gross-to-Net Solution will provide integrated revenue forecasting, analytics, reporting and visualization capabilities, enabling both web-based deployment and unparalleled integration with MS Excel.

Breakaway Gross-to-Net Solution provides pharmaceutical manufacturers with actual analytics, reserves management, forecasting, and pre-deal analytics by customer, by product, and by month, covering all gross to net line items, including channel-specific rebates and discounts, as well as non-channel financial items such as returns, industry fees, and co-pay cards. Leveraging state-of-the-art in-memory platform, the application provides real-time calculations of unit projections through a series of pre-built algorithms, and discount amount and rate calculations using a configurable basis of estimate for each line item. The application allows for multiple versions, what-if scenario analysis, adjustments, and management overlays, while maintaining full traceability and auditability of changes and assumptions.

“By leveraging SDF for the Gross-to-Net Solution, we have been able to provide a streamlined web-based interface for common forecasting, reserve management, and application administration tasks, which offers a significant improvement over previously-available options, while continuing to offer integration with Excel that is the staple of all financial analyses,” said Michael Grosberg, Breakaway’s Director of Industry Solutions. “The combination of fixed input and administration screens, pre-built reports, and flexibility of multi-dimensional analytics provides the user with exactly the right balance of structure and freedom to fully understand and explain gross-to-net forecast and reserves.”
