Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) and Real-World Evidence (RWE)

Accelerate real-world evidence generation for market access and payer strategies.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Market Access and HEOR Teams Generating Real-World Evidence

This solution is built for teams that:

  • Coordinate multiple HEOR vendors across concurrent studies without a unified system

  • Need to compare proposals consistently across vendors with different quoting formats

  • Struggle to track HEOR spend and budget utilization across multi-geography programs in real time

  • Lack centralized benchmark data on HEOR vendor pricing and performance

  • Face evidence generation timelines that are directly tied to market access windows and launch schedules

THE PROBLEM THIS SOLVES

Fragmented HEOR vendor management delays evidence generation

HEOR outputs are a critical component of commercial strategy - helping extend product reach, differentiation, and commercial longevity. Yet fragmented systems for managing HEOR vendors—each with different intake processes, quoting formats, and invoicing requirements—create delays that push out evidence generation timelines, directly impacting business outcomes

Why existing approaches fail:

Fragmented intake processes mean each HEOR vendor relationship starts from scratch—different forms, different requirements, different approval workflows.

Manual quoting and comparison makes it difficult to evaluate proposals consistently or track budget utilization across multiple concurrent studies.

Disconnected invoicing creates reconciliation challenges and prevents real-time visibility into spend against approved budgets.

Lack of centralized data means no benchmark insights on pricing, performance, or study execution across your HEOR vendor portfolio.

The result: Launch timelines slip. Market access opportunities close. Revenue projections miss targets.

HOW THE SOLUTION WORKS

From fragmented to coordinated

  • Standardized intake

    Automated intake captures protocol requirements upfront and routes to your preferred suppliers.

    What you get: Stronger partnerships with HEOR teams by replacing administrative friction with increased speed and alignment to R&D goals.

  • Automated workflows

    Automated SOWs, quote reviews and rate cards eliminate manual budget processes. Streamlined supplier onboarding and built-in policy enforcement make sure nothing falls through the cracks. 

    What you get: Measurable cost-savings and streamlined operations through rate card management and supplier consolidation.

  • Centralized coordination

    Single platform coordinates supplier activities across all study sites with real-time visibility into vendor performance, milestone completion, and budget utilization.

    What you get: Optimized management of complex models with line-level visibility into everything.

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

We orchestrate science, not transactions

Domain Expertise and Data Model

We have decades of scopes, performance records, pricing benchmarks, and workflow patterns that exist nowhere else, allowing you to move beyond your own transactional data to power your decisions. 

Purpose-Built for Science

Unlike generic tools, we understand protocol-level requirements, scientific expertise evaluation, and regulated R&D workflows.

Complete Orchestration

We don't just connect you to suppliers. We orchestrate sourcing, compliance, contracting, payment, and performance analytics in one unified platform.

Unified Legal Framework

One Master Services Agreement covers thousands of suppliers—eliminating the need to negotiate individual contracts, CDAs, and MTAs for each relationship or project.

Global Scientific Ecosystem

Curated supplier partners, top pharma companies in the world, along with emerging biotech and a team of scientists—all working together to orchestrate scientific breakthroughs.

Results that matter

Major pharmaceutical company generated critical real-world evidence for payer negotiations 8 weeks faster through standardized HEOR vendor coordination—supporting successful formulary placement before competitor launch.

Key outcomes:

  • Accelerated evidence generation timeline

  • Centralized visibility across multiple concurrent HEOR studies

  • Standardized quote comparison and vendor performance tracking

  • Real-time budget management across multi-geography programs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Science Exchange support HEOR and real-world evidence generation?
Science Exchange standardizes the intake, quoting, and billing workflows for HEOR vendor management. The platform coordinates outcomes research, patient registries, and health economic modeling studies through automated intake forms, rate card management, and centralized project coordination, reducing evidence generation timelines.
Why do HEOR teams need a different approach than standard procurement?
HEOR evidence generation operates on payer timelines tied to formulary decisions and market access windows. Standard procurement processes introduce delays through individual vendor intake, manual quoting, and disconnected invoicing. Science Exchange provides HEOR-specific workflows with standardized intake, automated rate card enforcement, and real-time budget tracking built for time-sensitive evidence requests.
What HEOR outcomes have organizations achieved with Science Exchange?
A major pharmaceutical company generated critical real-world evidence for payer negotiations 8 weeks faster through standardized HEOR vendor coordination on Science Exchange, supporting successful formulary placement ahead of a competitor launch. Organizations also report centralized visibility across concurrent HEOR studies and standardized vendor performance tracking.
How does Science Exchange handle HEOR vendor billing and invoicing?
Science Exchange automates line-level invoice matching against approved budgets and rate cards for HEOR engagements. The platform tracks milestone-based payments, enforces pre-negotiated rates, and provides real-time spend visibility across multiple concurrent studies, eliminating manual reconciliation and budget overrun risk.
Does Science Exchange support both enterprise pharma and market access teams for HEOR?
Yes. Enterprise pharmaceutical teams use Science Exchange for multi-geography HEOR program coordination with patient data protection and ERP integration. Market access teams use the platform for rapid specialist engagement without consulting retainers, accessing pre-qualified HEOR expertise through standardized workflows.
