What THEMA Consulting does

THEMA Consulting is a privately held Australian health economics consultancy headquartered in Pyrmont, Australia. Founded in 2006, the firm operates with a headcount of 11-50 employees and is positioned in the niche intersection of health economics advice and health technology assessment (HTA) services. Its public-facing website is thema.net.

The firm's functional scope centres on economics advisory work and formal health technology assessment — a regulated advisory discipline typically supporting pharmaceutical manufacturers, medical device companies, payers, and government agencies in evaluating the cost-effectiveness, budget impact, and reimbursement case for health technologies. The firmographic record describes its service offering at a high level (economics advice and HTA services) but does not disclose proprietary methodologies, technology platforms, or software products.

Revenue mechanics, pricing models, customer segments, named clients, partner ecosystems, and geographic footprint are not disclosed in the available data. No funding rounds, investors, acquisitions, product launches, leadership bios, or public strategic moves by THEMA Consulting are present in the input. The bulk of the aggregated data actually pertains to Atom.com (formerly Squadhelp), a domain marketplace that is selling the domain name "Thema.com" — that content is not about THEMA Consulting as a corporate entity and should not be attributed to it. As a result, the analytical evidence base for THEMA Consulting is thin and largely limited to firmographic descriptors.

Direct peers

• Evidera (PPD / Thermo Fisher Scientific): One of the largest dedicated health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) consultancies, providing HTA, modelling, and real-world evidence services to pharma and payers globally — directly overlapping THEMA's core service offering.
• Putnam Associates: Specialist strategy and HTA consultancy serving biopharma on pricing, market access, and health economics. Comparable service mix to THEMA, particularly on payer engagement and reimbursement strategy.
• RTI Health Solutions: Specialist HEOR and HTA consultancy supporting regulatory and reimbursement submissions across multiple jurisdictions. Closely comparable to THEMA in service scope (economic modelling, HTA) with a broader geographic footprint.
• Abacus International (CEG): Specialist HTA and market access consultancy (now part of CEG). Directly comparable service portfolio — HTA submissions, economic modelling, and payer engagement — for pharma and medical device clients.
• The Lewin Group (Optum): Health economics and policy consulting practice within Optum, providing HTA, economic analysis, and programme evaluation. Directly comparable to THEMA's HTA and economics advisory focus.
• Mapi Group / ICON (HEOR): HEOR and patient-centred research consultancy (formerly Mapi Group, now part of ICON plc). Comparable to THEMA in delivering HTA, evidence synthesis, and economic modelling for pharma and device clients.

Regional players

• HERC — Health Economics Research Centre, University of Oxford: UK-based academic centre producing applied health economics research and HTA evidence. Comparable methodology to THEMA but operating in a different geography and as an academic rather than commercial consultancy.
• Menzies Centre for Health Economics: Australia-based academic health economics research centre producing HTA and policy-relevant economic analysis. Comparable to THEMA in geography and method focus, though operating as a non-profit research unit rather than a commercial consultancy.

Broad incumbents

• IQVIA (HEOR / Real-World Solutions): Global life sciences services giant with a significant HEOR and HTA practice. Overlaps with THEMA on health economic modelling and HTA submissions, but operates at vastly larger scale across the full clinical-commercial spectrum.
• Optum (UnitedHealth Group) — HEOR: Large incumbent offering health economics, real-world evidence, and consulting services to payers and pharma. Overlaps with THEMA on HTA and economic modelling, but as part of a much broader health services platform.
