StayinFront Partners With DataFlux to Deliver Data Quality to Pharmaceutical Companies

FAIRFIELD, NJ--(Marketwire - Apr 10, 2012) - StayinFront, Inc., a leading global provider of customer relationship management systems and mobile sales force effectiveness tools, announced today an expanded partnership agreement with DataFlux, a leading provider of data management solutions. As part of the new OEM agreement, DataFlux's Data Management Platform will serve as an integral component of StayinFront's Master Data Management services to enhance overall data quality for StayinFront's Life Sciences CRM customers.

The DataFlux solution, embedded within StayinFront's Life Sciences CRM software, allows companies to improve overall data stewardship, as well as manage and maintain data that is error-free and validated against third-party data sources in real-time, with less cost. StayinFront customers using DataFlux's best-in-breed technology can better leverage data so that they can optimally align their activities with the greatest business opportunity.

In addition, the solution helps facilitate compliance with industry regulations such as the Physician Payment Sunshine Act (PPSA), which requires companies to provide increased transparency of their financial relationships with healthcare providers (HCPs) through aggregate spend reporting.

"Data quality is extremely important to the healthcare sector," said Pat Herbert, vice president of strategic business relations at DataFlux. "Our platform enables the creation of a single source of reliable, accurate and actionable data that can better relate HCPs to healthcare organizations or associations. This cannot only aid compliance, it can foster better business relationships."

"Life Sciences organizations face unique challenges with respect to data quality. Poor data quality is a compliance risk. It also increases cost and diminishes the effectiveness of the sales force," said Sam Barclay, executive vice president and managing director North America at StayinFront. "By partnering with DataFlux, StayinFront's Master Data Management Services will help companies maximize the overall value of their data. Sales and marketing effectiveness is enhanced by virtue of better targeting, operational expenses are reduced, and compliance is improved."
