Market Overview
• The Anatomical Pathology/Histochemistry market definition at BBC includes all instrumentation, reagents, and consumables required for the analysis of tissue
samples; starting from after the tissue has been excised during biopsy to diagnosis
• Most competitors only manufacture products in one or two of these segments; Histochemistry & Immunochemistry
• Advanced Staining is the most active segment, witnessing the largest amount of M&A, partnership, and product launch activity while Preanalytical and Primary
Staining are dominated by commoditized consumables and instrumentation
• Although the smallest from a revenue perspective, Advanced Workflow is the fastest growing segment, however a lack of regulatory approvals for the technology
has hampered adoption

23. CASE STUDY: MARKET SIZING AND OPPORTUNITY ASSESSMENT FOR
A HIGH COST IVD SOLUTION RECENTLY LAUNCHED IN AFRICA.23
A multi-pronged approach to quantify market opportunities for POC MDX devices in Africa
Situation Solution
Result
• Uncovered the perceived clinical utility of “Product X” and identified the key market segments that would be most applicable for the clients
product and will give the largest revenue returns
• Developed a forecasting model in excel that helped client plan for future potential demand based on 3 different scenarios
• As a byproduct of the research we were able to help the client build partnerships with certain key accounts and KOLs due to specific and
consented desire from respondents to be introduced to the client after seeing the masked Product X product specifications
Our client is selling a high cost point of care diagnostic solution
that brings high medical value for patient management in
respiratory infection, GI infections and encephalitis/meningitis,
among other therapy areas.
The objective of the study was to:
• Quantify the size of the market and generate an assessment
of the market potential over a 5 year period
• Identify key market segments to focus on – and how to best
demonstrate cost effectiveness/value proposition to each
target
• Understand customer perception of clinical utilities of the
product, especially given its higher cost
The comprehensive methodology included a 2-phase approach:
• Phase 1: Secondary Research on Public Available Data
• To obtain disease epidemiology & hospital admission data that is
used for demand modelling and market sizing
• Phase 2: Primary Research via Face-to-Face Interview with
Specialists, Laboratory Managers and General Practitioners
• To understand treatment algorithms and admission criteria of a typical
patient today – identifying unmet needs and the perceived clinical
utility of proposed product
• The total test volume based on different techniques and future
potential conversion / adoption of “Product X”, as well as pricing
information to develop an accurate picture of the size of the market
