Managing HCP engagements today often means managing chaos.

Without a unified system, companies juggle a complex network of vendors, tools, and data flows — FMV calculators, sanction screening platforms, invoicing tools, contracting portals, trackers, CRMs, and internal spreadsheets, each operating in isolation.

What happens next? Data mismatches, manual reconciliations, delayed approvals, false positives in screenings, and compliance teams stuck stitching it all together. The more vendors, the higher the integration risk.

In this session, we’ll unpack what this looks like in real life: how disjointed processes create compliance blind spots, how companies have tried (and failed) to make it work, and what we’ve learned from those experiences. We’ll explore practical ways to bring consistency across systems, teams, and vendors — and what it actually takes to make HCP engagement technology work together instead of working against you.
