About This Customer/ Company Objective

The Business Problem Challenges

Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd. (NYSE: RDY) is an integrated global pharmaceutical company, committed to providing affordable and innovative medicines for healthier lives. With employee strength of over 17,000 employees, the group has three major business segments namely Pharmaceutical Services & Active Ingredients, Global Generics and Proprietary Products. Major markets include India, USA, Russia-CIS and Europe apart from other select geographies within Emerging Markets. Dr. Reddy’s research wing IPDO, executes many projects for creating new drug in API and Formulation. Because of non-availability of centralized, simple, secure and intuitive solution to deposit and share the knowledge created, individual project knowledge base was separately created and maintained. This was leading to recreation of same project data in similar projects with minimum to no reutilization of available data with the earlier projects.
