OSI Pharmaceuticals Deploys Target SFA Software Suite
Allentown, PA, June 11, 2004 - Target Software today announced that it has
entered into a licensing and services agreement to implement and operate the
Target SFA sales effectiveness suite for OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc.'s
Oncology Business. OSI Pharmaceuticals focuses on the discovery, development
and commercialization of high-quality, next generation oncology products that
both extend life and improve the quality-of-life for cancer patients worldwide. The
Target SFA suite will become OSI's central sales information management solution
and the Target Software Support Center will provide training, hosting, help desk,
data management and other SFA operational services for OSI on an ongoing basis.
OSI's national sales force is being deployed on Target Mobile, Target Software's
ultra-portable mobile sales software. OSI Oncology Sales Specialists will manage
their daily activities using the advanced account-based selling features of Target
Mobile. Account profiling, affiliation management, route planning, event management
and sales data presentation functions will all be used to enhance Sales Specialist
and overall Sales Force Effectiveness. OSI Regional Managers will utilize Target
Software's web-based transaction monitoring and reporting tools.
Target BackOffice will become part of OSI Pharmaceutical's central sales data warehouse
and CRM solution. Target Software's data pipeline technology, TIM, will be used to
integrate a continuous stream of specially-prepared third-party marketing and
segmentation data to help the OSI Sales Specialists more effectively target
Healthcare Professionals in the Oncology market.
?Target SFA has made a name for itself as great solution for automating primary care
sales forces,? states Ted Rosenberger, Target Software's Chairman and CEO.
?However, we also provide many streamlined features that make our software equally
attractive for account-focused companies like OSI. Our account-based selling technology
provides specialized functions that are sorely needed by specialty pharmaceutical sales
organizations of all sizes.?
