Cegedim Relationship Management today announced that Mellin SpA will implement Mobile Intelligence? and MI Touch? to increase their market leadership in Italy through next generation CRM technology featuring optimal flexibility and robust tablet functionalities. Additionally, Mellin will leverage the world's largest healthcare practitioner (HCP) database, OneKey?, to increase their customer data insights. Mellin SpA is an Italian enterprise specializing in innovative infant nutrition products, and represents an integral business unit of Groupe Danone, a recognized world leader in food-products.

Revolutionizing Commercial Interactions through Mobility and Robust Data

Competition in the infant nutrition market has intensified, and the price premium for branded products has eroded. Thus, leading companies seek to retain and grow value by improving their commercial team's ability to connect with pediatricians, decision makers and other stakeholders.

Mobile Intelligence strengthens Mellin's engagement strategies by empowering users with next generation technology. Specifically, MI Touch, which Mellin will deploy for field users on iPads?, features a workflow-driven design, consistent on- and off-line functionality, and real time access to over 8 million registered HCPs via OneKey data. This enables Mellin users to achieve higher productivity levels, and cultivate more meaningful customer relationships throughout Italy. Additionally, Mobile Intelligence enables superior back-end administration via flexible system architecture, which allows for rapid configuration as local and regional markets shift - keeping Mellin ahead of their highly fragmented market.

"We are enthusiastic about aligning with a proven leader that has market expertise across the industry," said Dario Carrara, Medical Operations Manager, Mellin SpA. "Mobile Intelligence's intuitive mobile application and exceptional configuration capabilities facilitate easy integration with our complex business model and market needs."

"We are honored to be partnering with Mellin. By seamlessly adapting to their specialized business, Mobile Intelligence and OneKey deliver the critical CRM and data tools to support their goals in Italy's infant nutrition market," said Laurent Labrune, Chief Executive Officer of Cegedim Relationship Management. "Helping companies meet current/future market trends and establish long-term growth is our top priority though our CRM and data innovations."
