In-licensing Opportunity Assessment
Our in-licensing opportunity assessment framework enables pharmaceutical and healthcare companies to systematically identify, assess, and validate external assets—including drug candidates, technologies, and platforms—for potential integration into their portfolio through in-licensing agreements.
Our solution suite covers
| Scientific & Technical Diligence |
Review of MoA, preclinical/clinical data. Benchmarking against current standards of care and pipeline assets. Identification of development or technical risks. |
| Commercial Due Diligence |
Market sizing and forecasting Competitive landscape analysis (approved drugs, pipeline, emerging technologies). Go-to-market strategy, pricing, and reimbursement landscape. Differentiation and value proposition evaluation. |
| Regulatory and IP Review |
Regulatory pathway assessment (FDA, EMA, PMDA, etc.). Assessment of prior interactions with regulatory agencies. |
| Financial Modeling & Valuation |
Risk-adjusted NPV (rNPV) models. Milestone and royalty modeling. Deal benchmarking based on industry comparables. Sensitivity analysis to assess deal value under different scenarios. |
| Strategic Fit Analysis |
Fit with existing portfolio or pipeline. Alignment with long-term corporate objectives. Synergy potential with internal capabilities (e.g., R&D, sales force, manufacturing). |

Product B (Preference 1)
Indication Potential – (Rare disease with >100,000 patients)
Competitive Intensity – (Poor pipeline and no approved drugs)
Unmet Needs/Pricing Ability – (Poor survival rates)
KOL Enthusiasm/SoC Possibility - (1st product to be approved)
Development & Regulatory – (Difficulty in patient recruitment and fixing endpoints in consultation with FDA)
Product D (Preference 2)
Indication Potential – (Epidemiology ~ 1,000,000 patients)
Competitive Intensity – (2 approved and 3 late-stage pipeline)
Unmet Needs/Pricing Ability – (5-year survival rate: 30%)
KOL Enthusiasm/SoC Possibility - (KOLs are looking for breakthrough therapies that improve survival)
Development & Regulatory – (The clinical trial design is well-defined with regulatory support for innovative products)
Data-intensive with weights and scores for each parameter, enabling flexibility for the client
Revenue Forecasting and Sensitivity Analysis
We specialize in data-driven revenue forecasting and precision sensitivity analysis designed to de-risk strategic decisions and elevate asset valuation across the drug lifecycle.
Whether you're assessing an in-licensing opportunity, planning a new launch, or evaluating the ROI of clinical investments, our modeling frameworks help you answer the questions that matter:
| Target Population | Estimated number of treatable patients based on epidemiological data (prevalence, incidence, mortality, morbidity) |
| Treatment Rate | Expected adoption among eligible patients (new vs existing therapies), eligibility criteria, treatment rate, dosing regimen |
| Market Share | % of patients likely to choose this product over competitors. Uptake curve, peak share, competition, access |
| Pricing Strategy | List price, AWP (average wholesale price), WAC (wholesale acquisition cost), net price (discounts/rebates), price erosion |
| Reimbursement Landscape | Coverage by payers, access hurdles, out-of-pocket costs |
| Launch Timing | Impact of regulatory approval, sales ramp-up, and commercial readiness |
| Monte Carlo Simulations | Run probabilistic scenarios to capture uncertainty |
| NPV & ROI Analysis | Evaluate long-term financial return on development/commercialization |
| Sensitivity Analysis | Variable testing (e.g. price, share, timing) |

Sensitivity Analysis Module
Our sensitivity analysis module evaluates how changes in key assumptions impact revenue projections — helping stakeholders understand risks, upside potential, and critical pressure points. we customize sensitivity analysis module evaluating how uncertainty in key inputs affects the outcomes of economic or valuation models — especially in licensing, pricing, and reimbursement decisions.

Creation of Input Data Table
Change in the low and high case input values works through the forecast model flow and recalculates the values in Sensitivity Analysis.
Sensitivity Analysis Output
Fast: 5-10 days for integration and output
Flexible: Ability to change the low and high case inputs
Longevity: Works as long as there is no change in the forecast flow (Assumptions can be changed)
Cost-effective: Automation made it possible

Problem-specific Consulting
We offer targeted, expert-driven interventions that address specific challenges or decisions at different phases of a drug’s journey — from discovery to post-launch. Each phase has unique challenges, regulatory hurdles, and strategic decisions — and expert consulting can de-risk development, accelerate timelines, and maximize asset value
Our focus areas
| Early-stage strategy | Target product profiling, indication prioritization, competitive landscape mapping |
| Development optimization | Value-based trial design, pricing-informed evidence generation, TPP refinement |
| Licensing & partnerships | Asset valuation, deal structuring support, in-licensing feasibility, risk-adjusted forecasts |
| Commercialization readiness | Access strategy, payer positioning, launch planning, value communication |
| Post-launch performance | Market expansion, real-world value analysis, pricing renegotiations, portfolio rationalization |
