/PRNewswire/ --

Data Intelligence today announced it is a 2012 winner of Microsoft Corp.'s Life

Sciences Innovation Awards.

The awards, announced at the Drug Information Association's (DIA) 48th annual

meeting in

Philadelphia

, honor companies using Microsoft solutions to realize

business and information technology benefits. This year's notable winners are

revolutionizing medicine by bringing therapeutic breakthroughs to the market

faster, to fight serious ailments, improve healthcare and enhance people's

quality of life.

"Now more than ever, the life sciences industry is faced with many challenges

including cutting costs and bring new drugs and therapies to market faster,"

said Andrea McGonigle, national managing director, Life Sciences, Microsoft

Corp. "We are impressed with how the winners demonstrate sustainable

impacts through technology, and are proud that Microsoft's software plays an

important role in enabling these achievements in life sciences."

Data Intelligence' innovative sales force coaching application PharmaCOACH,

built on Microsoft technology including Silverlight, helps healthcare companies

align to their medical and non-medical customers by equipping the field teams

with the right blend of knowledge, skills and behaviors needed for successful

professional interactions. Data Intelligence alongside their pharmaceutical

client, a leading global provider of specialty medicines, developed

PharmaCOACH to meet the client's demanding professional standards in terms

of ethics, clinical knowledge, professional selling skills and above all healthcare

customer partnering behaviors. All of these capabilities were built in against a

backdrop of a rapidly changing healthcare environment (the UK NHS currently

undergoing major reconfiguration). The capabilities delivered by

PharmaCOACH and the client's highly effective training and coaching team

helped the client grow their business and retain their most important accounts

and customers. Now in its fourth major version, PharmaCOACH has been

proven to add significant value and competitive advantage to medical sales

teams again and again.

Tony Cox, Head of Client Effectiveness at Data Intelligence said "winning the

Microsoft Innovation Award in recognition of PharmaCOACH and the difference

it has made to our most important clients is the realization of a long term

ambition for excellence in sales coaching. This award underlines the fact that

we're aligning closely to our customers' needs, what their end users need, and

importantly we're collectively adding value to patients by being more aligned,

more skilled and closer to our customer".
