    Study Notes

    Ivey Case Study Notes: Innovation Without Walls: Alliance Management at Eli Lilly and Company

    • Context: Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) faced increasing pressures in the pharmaceutical industry, including rising development costs and a complex competitive landscape. The company's Office of Alliance Management (OAM) was instrumental in building its reputation for excellence in partnerships. However, the OAM needed a strategic review.

    • Industry Dynamics: The pharmaceutical industry saw rapid consolidation in the 1990s, with global sales reaching $550 billion by 2004, and North America accounting for 45% of global sales. High development costs (over US$800 million) and short patent protection periods put significant pricing pressures on pharmaceutical firms.

    • OAM at Lilly: Established in 1999, OAM was instrumental in Lilly's excellence in partnerships. The director of OAM, Gary Stach, was tasked with reviewing the OAM strategy, given the anticipated significant increase in the complexity of alliances at Lilly.

    • Alliance Management at Lilly: The OAM (Office of Alliance Management) plays a key role. It aims to help Lilly develop the necessary alignment and capabilities to achieve its alliance vision. The role of alliance managers within OAM was crucial for success, facilitating and supporting various stages from pre-deal assessment, relationship building, to ongoing alliance management. The OAM had three main responsibilities:

    • Alliance champion (senior executive) providing high-level support and oversight

    • Alliance leader working on the day-to-day operations of specific alliances

    • Alliance manager acting as a liaison between the two partners.

    • Alliance Strategy at Lilly: Alliance strategies were typically classified into early, clinical, and advanced clinical stages, based on the development stage of the drug. Lilly's focus was on innovation-driven growth, external partnerships, and development. Examples of partnerships include research alliances, commercial alliances, and manufacturing alliances.

    • Challenges in Alliances: 60% of alliances failed due to non-technical factors, such as issues in communication, differing objectives or expectations, and poor leadership. Thus, maintaining healthy relationships and mitigating such issues has been a key strategy to Lilly's success.

    • Relationship and Capability: The alliance manager (OAM) plays a vital role in the success of each alliance. Their focus is not only on the contractual aspects, but also on maintaining a healthy partnership relationship, cultural understanding, and collaborative processes. This was crucial to mitigate risks of failure due to conflicts among alliance partners.

    • OAM Processes: Lilly developed a proprietary framework (LAMP) integrating best practices. Various tools and processes that include 3-Dimensional Fit Analysis, Governance Framework, Strategic Futures Exercises, and Shared Strategic Intent were used to proactively assess and manage alliances.

    • OAM Staff: Having alliance managers with general management skills, prior operational experience, interpersonal and problem-solving abilities; was vital for successful management. Training and opportunities for growth were important for OAM staff retention and effectiveness.

    • Future Issues and Outlook: OAM addressed the need to enhance their scope, expand geographically including international alliances, and collaborate across functional areas such as manufacturing and research. OAM also needed to consider the effective integration of external partnerships into the core business processes of Lilly.
