Precisioneffect

What Precisioneffect does

Precisioneffect, doing business as Precision AQ, is a Boston-headquartered, privately held marketing and advertising services firm founded in 1979 that serves the biopharmaceutical industry. The company provides brand strategy, advertising, medical communications, market access consulting, HEOR, investor relations, and data-driven omnichannel campaign execution, operating primarily through enterprise B2B consulting engagements with Top 20 global biopharma clients. It positions itself as an extension of client teams across EMEA, North America, LATAM, and AsiaPac, with therapeutic specialization in Immunology, Neurology, Oncology, Rare Disease, and Cardio Renal Metabolic.

The company's core technology is the Navigator365™ platform, a suite consisting of Navigator365™ Core (a benchmarking tool covering 15K+ prescribers across 20+ therapy areas and 20+ countries), Navigator365™ Planner (omnichannel campaign planning), and Navigator365™ Tracker (real-time performance reporting). Complementary standalone products include AccessGenius for market access data, OncoGenius for oncology insights, Data Solutions, EHR Solutions, and Omnichannel Solutions. Revenue is generated through project-based and ongoing consulting engagements rather than disclosed product pricing, with no publicly available pricing model.

The company employs 101–250 staff, maintains a Greenhouse-hosted careers portal, and is led by executives including Chief Creative Officer Deborah Lotterman and EVP PR & Social Georgette Pascale. Its 2018 acquisition of Big Pink extended creative and digital execution capabilities, and its operating geographies, therapeutic breadth, and productized data offerings indicate a multi-decade evolution from a brand agency into a broader pharma commercial strategy and data platform.
