Situation

A leading biopharmaceutical firm faced challenges with labor-intensive, error-prone incentive processes for their salesforce and managers, resulting in transparency issues. Aurochs was engaged to automate incentive calculations, aiming to enhance operational effectiveness and reduce reliance on spreadsheets.

Outcome

Incentive calculations became faster and more efficient, achieving full audit compliance with strong data controls. Real-time dashboards boosted sales reps' motivation, while flexible configurations allowed quick adaptation to market changes and enhanced engagement through earnings scenario simulations.

Situation

  1. Incentive calculations became faster and more efficient, achieving full audit compliance with strong data controls. Real-time dashboards boosted sales reps' motivation, while flexible configurations allowed quick adaptation to market changes and enhanced engagement through earnings scenario simulations.
  2. Current procedures were labor-intensive and prone to errors, leading to transparency and operational issues.
