Excellence in forecasting to elevate commercial decision‑making across life sciences organizations
Forecasting informs vital decision-making across a life sciences organization, from the C-suite to Finance through to Commercial and Manufacturing.
Unlocking even more value requires an “ecosystem” approach—one where challenges are met with technology and expertise. This approach supports confident business planning and investments throughout the organization.
A “forecasting ecosystem” is a collection of effective, efficient processes and tools enabling activities necessary to forecast a product or portfolio.
Trinity is a long-established forecasting partner to the life sciences industry. Our dedicated forecasting team combines strategy, research and technical expertise, employing a suite of well-designed tools and well-considered assumptions.
Trinity Forecasting has extensive experience across therapeutic areas, modalities and the product lifecycle:
Strategic Forecasts
Operational Forecasts
BD/Deal Term Forecasts, including NPV
Market Access Forecasting for Pricing & Contracting
Trinity forecasts are supported by best-in-class offerings across the Commercial Analytics suite, as well as Contract Analytics, Pricing, Business Development, Primary Market Research and Real-World Evidence. With these inputs in mind, Trinity creates robust, functional tools fully informed by the best possible assumptions.
Forecasting engagements include design, build, calibration and communication phases—and often ongoing operational support. Whether clients need an onsite dedicated resource to prepare for long-range planning, ongoing monthly support to actualize a model or on-demand resources to fill the role of an in-house forecasting team, Trinity provides full-service forecasting support.
Our forecasting offerings include:
Time and effort spent on common operational forecasting challenges take stakeholder mind space away from critical discussions on business dynamics. These operational inefficiencies can be mitigated—and ultimately business decision-making can be focused on the outcomes—by effective forecasting collaboration.

“I am a highly satisfied client of Trinity Partner’s CloudCast Forecasting Platform and their services as a strategic partner in Forecasting for Oncology. I have previously worked in environments using standalone spreadsheets and entirely cloud-based planning modules. There are limitations to both systems, and I have found that Trinity’s approach of blending custom Excel models with the web-based forecast manager is a perfect fit in a dynamic biotech environment.”
– Andrew Jessup, Director of Forecasting & Business Analytics
