The Need

Novo Nordisk is a world leader in diabetes care with the broadest diabetes product portfolio in the industry, including the most advanced products within the area of insulin delivery systems. In addition, Novo Nordisk has a leading position in areas such as haemostasis management, growth hormone therapy and hormone replacement therapy. Novo Nordisk needed a development partner to help administer training documents and to facilitate testing to track the users' results. The new web site had to incorporate previous training materials, provide real-time reporting, and be scalable for future growth.

The Solution

Brookwood developed a web site that enables Novo Nordisk employees access to educational information on their product portfolio, the diabetes disease state and the company's Standard Operating Procedures. Diabetes Sales Operations and Managed Care & Government personnel are able to only access the Standard Operating Procedures relevant to their positions. An extranet site was provided to the client to access the site throughout development to facilitate the process. The sites functionality includes tracking when documents, web casts, and tests are viewed, generating tests with random questions taken from a pool, and detailed reporting of tests and user history. Administrators have total control of the site's content. Via a secure website, admin users add new documents, assign viewing permissions, create new tests, maintain user names and passwords, and control the appearance. Maintaining the site requires no knowledge of complex web development coding or web design experience. The entire project was delivered on time and within budget.

Key Advantages

• Scaleable platform allowed client to add additional modules at a reduced cost.
• Administrative feature creates reduced maintenance costs.
• Access to real time reporting has increased sales management productivity.
