Once the hospitals were broadly segmented based on bed­size, ownership type and regions, EMeRG estimated the critical attributes including no. of ICU beds, NICU beds and ORs in each. This was followed by creating a deeper bifurcation based on level of care and procedural mix. ICU beds and NICU beds were divided into Level I/II/III across certain countries; while ORs were classified into Major and Minor ORs. Top­down methodology for TAM estimation was adequately validated through bottom­up methodology including detailed listing of infrastructure and installed base (IB) Research Outcome: The research helped the clients streamline their current understanding of total addressable market. A heat map was proposed to understand current regions within a country with high IB (and hence high replacement rates) vs. client's current field­reach or feet­on­street. The insights are now being internalized to improve sales force effectiveness strategies within direct sales and indirect channel partners EMeRG Value Add: Healthcare expertise - EMeRG's in­depth understanding of the hospital infrastructure in ASEAN helped us leverage local resources to map and size the hospital demographics [vc_column css=".vc_custom_1511261700038{border-top-width: 5%…...
