Content Excellence in the life sciences
Learn how to enable your organisation to handle ever-increasing demands for digital content

How it works
Content excellence means optimising your content supply chain for the digital world. It speeds up the whole process by making each phase — content creation, approval, production, and distribution — more efficient. This requires a clear strategy and detailed implementation plan, which we develop through a 4-step process:
Review a situational analysis to understand how you work with content and how your content supply chains fit together. This process uncovers the pain points and bottlenecks that need to be fixed. In effect, stage one of the content excellence process provides the rationale for change — and the means to get buy-in from internal stakeholders.
Design a plan that details your content excellence strategy. This phase describes how you will build assets in the future, describing your content creation vision and how this will be realised — your implementation roadmap. Together, the vision and roadmap provide your business case for change.
Implement your content production model and organisational setup. This phase details the implications for your people, processes and partnerships. The result is an implementation plan that describes the required organisational setup, people’s roles and responsibilities, and the required resources to make the change.
Specify your requirements for technology platforms, systems and tools. This phase analyses your current technologies and their application to your content excellence strategy. It details how current tools and systems can be optimised and identifies opportunities for new solutions to be deployed to bring efficiency to your supply chain.
These four steps result in a content excellence strategy and an implementation plan that meet your organisation's specific needs — resulting in content that is cheaper, faster, and easier to produce. And it takes the stresses and burdens off internal stakeholders throughout the organisation — from MLR to affiliate localisation.
New technologies and content formats
The updated procedures and systems that content excellence puts in place make better use of new technologies. One option is to enhance your existing systems. For example, many pharma companies have invested in Veeva Vault. This can be configured to meet your company's specific content management practices and workflows. Yet this rarely happens. A content excellence programme, therefore, can unlock Veeva's potential to meet your precise requirements.
Another option is to boost your digital asset management (DAM) system with a content authoring solution that’s designed for pharma’s regulated business environment. For example, Anthill’s own Activator product integrates seamlessly with Veeva Vault — enabling a better user experience. As a result, content creation, management, MLR reviews and localisation are all made easier for brand teams and their agencies.
In the past, digital channels worked independently — operating as silos of information. An HCP would see roughly the same messages in each channel and be required to search and sort the information themselves. This multichannel approach is now being replaced by omnichannel. Omnichannel is a digital ecosystem in which channels and content connect. This enables a new way of working. You no longer repeat the same information everywhere. Instead, you move people through your ecosystem — designing customer experiences that, by responding to different profiles, are more relevant and engaging.
For example, an HCP receives an approved email with information relevant to their specific interests. They then click a CTA to a website that has more detailed information. Later they receive an invitation to a remote detailing session. During this meeting, the rep invites the HCP to a webinar that presents the latest scientific data. In this way, the content and channels are all related but the story builds over time. This encourages HCPs to keep exploring.

Content excellence & AI
The latest development in pharma content excellence is the application of AI to pharma’s supply chain. There are numerous potential use cases, from generating content and automating routine marketing tasks to optimising the MLR process to speed approvals. Two transformative options are already being pioneered by Anthill.Arcane is a pharma AI solution for content discovery, planning, and generation.
Arcane enables you to unlock AI’s potential in pharma safely. Designed specifically for the demanding needs of healthcare, Arcane solves pharma’s content discovery, reuse and creation challenges. It reduces costs, removes complexity, and accelerates production — providing compliant content in the high volumes required by today’s personalised marketing strategies.
One specific Arcane use case is using the power of generative AI to build modular content in high volumes. By removing production complexity modules become easy to create and, therefore, your communications can be even more targeted — precisely matching tightly defined HCP profiles.
Anthill is also pioneering the next innovation: applying AI to assemble modular content into ready-to-use tactics. This innovation will make the benefits of modular content even more accessible by enabling natural and intuitive workflows. As a result, you can create high-quality, fully-specified tactics using everyday language.
