Life, Science, Health: no compromise.
“Dear visitor,
The rapid emergence of generic drugs on the market is pushing the major players in the pharmaceuticals sector to adapt their business models. At the same time, companies in the medical equipment sector are becoming increasingly more successful in meeting mass and remote health-care needs.
Altran is a major technological innovator in these sectors and addresses the key challenges facing the industry. Altran delivers engineering, IT and consulting services and solutions across the entire life sciences value chain.”
With a network of over 1,000 dedicated consultants, Altran delivers the highest level of expertise to more than 190 customers worldwide.
R&D and manufacturing of innovative medical products are highly complex and very capital intensive. Pharmaceuticals, biotechnological and medical device companies perform on competitive, fast-moving global markets that are subject to increasingly stricter legislation and heavier pressure on prices.
Altran offers adapted strategic, operational and technological solutions to support companies in all stages of the medical-product life cycle. The Group also provides tailored, innovative services to support the optimisation of Healthcare Delivery Systems in the context of social, demographic, economic and technological change.
“The Life Sciences and Healthcare industry is confronted with major challenges. To remain competitive, companies must develop new growth strategies, improve overall efficiency and innovation capacity while complying with tightening regulatory requirements.
Altran has made a concentrated effort to gain an understanding of the underlying factors that affect our clients' performances and provides tailored solutions to help them address these specific challenges.”

The Group also supports its customers in clinical trials coordination and regulatory affairs and proposes adapted Knowledge and Information Management solutions (R&D portfolio management, Lab scientific collaboration and data management, clinical trials document management, laboratory information systems, etc.) to enhance R&D performance.
Thanks to Altran’s multi-sector expertise (medical devices, pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, etc.) we can support our customers in the creation of integrated solutions to enhance their current product offering.
Operational efficiency cost reduction
To enhance profitability, our customers must optimise operational efficiency across the entire company in order to cut costs. Altran can help its customers achieve this by delivering adapted enterprise performance and cost-optimisation solutions thanks to our expertise in Lean and efficiency management, enterprise architecture, supply chain and procurement optimisation). Altran also provides solutions for decision support and product lifecycle management, geared to enhance overall performance.
New growth markets
Against a backdrop of rapidly evolving socio-demographic trends, addressing unmet medical needs is a strategic priority for our clients and necessitates constant adaptation in terms of company strategy, organisation and operations.
In addition, the emerging markets offer significant business opportunities, a factor that is causing our customers to reorganise their geographic priorities.
Thanks to Altran’s global expertise, we can support our customers in adapting their organisations and operations to address new markets throughout each stage of the value chain; from the definition of innovative strategies and development of new medical product concepts, through product industrialisation and technology transfer to international regulatory affairs and the optimisation of production and the supply chain, depending on the characteristics of the new markets.
Our services offering also covers support in defining global collaboration strategies and solutions for our clients’ international activities.
Quality excellence
Quality is our main priority. Life Sciences companies today are operating within a regulatory framework that is becoming increasingly tougher and more complex in an ever-evolving geographical environment.
Thanks to our expertise in Quality Assurance and Quality Intelligence, as well as our regulatory content and compliance management solutions, we can provide our customers with services in terms of global regulatory requirement compliance, as well as anticipating and controlling quality across entire product development cycle.
Healthcare Delivery Optimisation
Healthcare systems face major challenges to guarantee the optimisation of the healthcare offering and the efficiency of patient-centric healthcare pathways while ensuring patient safety. The development of information and communication technologies to enable information sharing throughout the entire healthcare pathway, the transformation of organisations and the coordination of the different players throughout the whole value chain are some major stakes that the sector is facing.
As a specialist in innovation and technology, Altran is at the crossroads of technology and innovation, information systems and strategies. This unique position makes the Group a leading player to support the modernisation of healthcare systems and manage and implement projects related to health information systems, telemedicine, home care, and chronic disease monitoring.
