Our Experience in Pharma

We understand the intricacies of delivering digital solutions in one of the most tightly regulated sectors. As a pharmaceutical product development agency, D55 has supported global and national pharma clients across a wide range of digital initiatives. From early discovery workshops through to post-launch support, our team works closely with product owners, digital leads and medical affairs teams to bring innovation to life without compromising compliance.

Our work spans across:

Patient engagement platforms
Digital tools for healthcare professionals (HCPs)
Internal systems that support efficient workflows and secure data handling

We’re well-versed in frameworks such as GxP, GDPR and ABPI, and understand the importance of robust validation, audit trails and user permissions. That expertise is built into every product we deliver.

What We Deliver
We specialise in developing digital products that are not only functional but also fully aligned with the needs of pharmaceutical companies. These include:
- Compliant digital platforms for pharma that streamline internal processes or support external engagement
- Patient engagement platforms designed to enhance adherence, education and long-term health outcomes
- HCP engagement tools that enable better communication, data sharing and access to educational resources
- Clinical trial recruitment platforms that support eligibility screening and onboarding
- Data dashboards that give commercial and medical teams clear insights from disparate systems
Every product we deliver is underpinned by research, co-creation and a deep understanding of the end user.
Why D55?
Pharma companies choose D55 not only for our technical capability, but for the way we embed ourselves as true partners. Our approach is shaped by a strong focus on compliance by design, scalable architecture, and empathy-driven product thinking.
We don’t deliver off-the-shelf systems. Instead, we build long-term solutions tailored to your infrastructure, users and goals. Whether designing an HCP portal or a digital tool for internal teams, we always ensure that security, accessibility and usability are front and centre.
Our cross-functional team brings together UX specialists, software engineers, QA testers and strategists to ensure every platform delivers value. The result? Digital solutions that stand up to regulatory scrutiny and deliver real-world impact.
Proven Impact
Our portfolio includes a wide range of work, from platforms that simplify the recruitment of clinical trial participants, to dashboards that streamline medical affairs reporting. One project enabled a client’s field team to engage more HCPs in less time, while another helped a pharma company track patient adherence with unprecedented accuracy.
While specific client names remain confidential, the results speak for themselves: more efficient processes, improved engagement and better outcomes for users across the board.
Our Approach
Successful pharma digital solutions require collaboration, precision, and iteration. That’s why we begin every engagement with discovery workshops involving your stakeholders. Together, we define objectives, align on user needs and identify compliance requirements early on.
Delivery follows an agile framework, with regular reviews, clear documentation and ongoing quality assurance. Compliance and validation are never an afterthought, they are baked into our process. And once your platform is live, we continue to support you with iterative improvements, performance monitoring and user feedback.

D55 enabled us to migrate from on-premise to a cloud-based solution, resulting in monthly cost savings of about 40%. Cloud-based systems give us a high level of resiliency and an unlimited capacity to scale. We’ve really put in place the foundations for later phases of work and further cost reduction as we scale. It was a partnership as opposed to a service - we work well together.
