As a Booz & Company Partner based in Berlin, Peter Behner specializes in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, biotech, and medical device industries.
His expertise in the following disciplines is frequently leveraged for client support:
-
Business strategy and reengineering
-
Strategic sourcing
-
Operations strategy
-
Supply chain management
-
Operational cost reduction
One example of his experience in providing client solutions involves a major global biotech company that was experiencing problems in patient retention in Europe.
To create a fully functional patient retention program in which almost half of the targeted patient group subscribed, he and his team:
-
Evaluated the communications channel strategies to patients
-
Developed patient retention concepts, including a patient data collection option
-
Conducted extensive market research
-
Defined service offerings for patients and physicians
In another example, a mid-sized European pharmaceutical and biotech company with 10 global plants engaged Booz & Company for help in improving its operations and supply chain performance.
The project delivered a 12%+ conversion cost reduction after Mr. Behner and his team:
-
Provided organizational design of interfaces (i.e., CMC Process Development)
-
Collected baseline information that included product/volume mix and financial-, plant-, and distribution-related data based on visits to the top four sites
-
Provided analytical services including data on the company’s improvement potential based on OAE analysis
He also assisted in the development and implementation of a new R&D strategy for a global leader in asthma diagnostics. The project resulted in a complete outsourcing of the corporation’s instrument development and manufacturing to a third-party vendor.
Before joining Booz & Company in 2005, Mr. Behner worked with A.T. Kearney Inc., Trident Consulting Group, Arthur D. Little Inc., and Manufacturing Networks UK. He received a Diplom Ingenieur Meschinenbau from RWTH Aachen University.
