Across life sciences and high-tech companies, revenue management challenges continue to evolve. Survey respondents said that “top impacts” on revenue management include supply chain disruptions (44%) and artificial intelligence (40%), and 98% of executives say they face staffing issues in their revenue management program. Over half (51%) expect that issues with staffing and lack of available expertise will have a “significant” impact on revenue management in 2022.
How Executives Feel About the Pandemic
In a change from 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic was described as a critical revenue management challenge by 37% of executives, versus 58% the prior year. This sentiment can be attributed to other pressing issues in the market such as the prevalence of supply chain disruptions and staffing issues, which have become as pressing, if not more so, than the pandemic itself.
Using Revenue Management Technology
An overwhelming 99.7% of executives said “yes” when asked if additional technology capabilities would have specific benefits for their organizations. Looking deeper into what specific aspects of technology and solutions are needed, 80% of executives identified needing access to accurate and timely revenue management data.
“Our research illustrates that revenue management remains a challenge and that the revenue management function is still a top-priority for the C-suite,” said Suresh Kannan, Chief Product Officer at Model N. “The survey results also show that execs have an ingrained understanding that technology-based solutions – including the cloud, embedded AI and data analytics – are critical to tackling enterprise-wide revenue management issues and revenue leakage in 2022 and beyond.”
