Dear	
  Mr.	
  Y,	
  
Per	
  our	
  conversation,	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  is	
  pleased	
  to	
  present	
  a	
  research	
  proposal	
  that	
  will	
  
focus	
  on	
  making	
  specific	
  recommendations	
  for	
  CLIENT	
  X’s	
  unmet	
  needs	
  and	
  to	
  identify	
  
unmet	
  needs	
  and	
  new	
  opportunities	
  that	
  would	
  create	
  value	
  generation	
  to	
  support	
  the	
  
Advanced	
  Wound	
  Management	
  sector.	
  	
  
In	
  this	
  proposal,	
  we	
  present	
  a	
  review	
  of	
  the	
  objectives,	
  scope,	
  qualitative	
  research	
  and	
  
ideation	
  methodology	
  of	
  this	
  project.	
  	
  We	
  will	
  also	
  go	
  into	
  more	
  detail	
  regarding	
  the	
  
ideation	
  methodology	
  that	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  will	
  utilize	
  to	
  obtain	
  unique	
  insights	
  into	
  
identifying	
  and	
  assessing	
  disruptive	
  areas	
  in	
  Advanced	
  Wound	
  Management	
  where	
  there	
  
are	
  proven	
  unmet	
  needs,	
  including	
  identification	
  of	
  current	
  and	
  future	
  market	
  trends,	
  
identification	
  of	
  technologies	
  and	
  products	
  to	
  be	
  in-­‐licensed	
  or	
  acquired,	
  and	
  make	
  
recommendations	
  as	
  to	
  which	
  of	
  these	
  technologies	
  hold	
  the	
  greatest	
  promise	
  for	
  adoption.	
  
To	
  complement	
  our	
  work	
  on	
  this	
  project,	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  will	
  rely	
  on	
  a

  who	
  have	
  deep	
  domain	
  expertise	
  and	
  are	
  well	
  respected	
  in	
  
their	
  specific	
  disciplines.	
  This	
  assures	
  that	
  our	
  research,	
  ideation	
  and	
  points	
  of	
  view	
  are	
  of	
  
the	
  highest	
  value.	
  	
  
We

INTRODUCTION	
  
Modern	
  wound	
  care	
  is	
  a	
  complex	
  process	
  supported	
  worldwide	
  by	
  
obtuse	
  and	
  heterogeneous	
  funding	
  and	
  reimbursement	
  systems.	
  
Wound	
  care	
  is	
  an	
  integral	
  part	
  of	
  all	
  areas	
  of	
  healthcare	
  and	
  all	
  types	
  
of	
  practice,	
  and	
  the	
  patient	
  population	
  encompasses	
  the	
  spectrum	
  
from	
  infants	
  to	
  the	
  elderly.	
  Wound	
  care	
  may	
  involve	
  acute	
  wounds	
  
(e.g.,	
  trauma	
  and	
  surgical	
  incisions)	
  or	
  chronic	
  wounds	
  (e.g.,	
  pressure	
  
ulcers,	
  or	
  vascular	
  or	
  diabetic	
  ulcers).i	
  Currently,	
  chronic	
  wound	
  and	
  
ulcer	
  management	
  remains	
  one	
  of	
  the	
  most	
  costly	
  healthcare	
  
challenges.	
  ii	
  In	
  the	
  US	
  alone,	
  complex	
  wounds	
  affect	
  more	
  patients	
  
than	
  heart	
  attack	
  and	
  stroke	
  combined,	
  involving	
  5-­‐7	
  million	
  patients	
  
and	
  over	
  $20	
  billion	
  in	
  healthcare	
  expenditures.	
  These	
  complex	
  
wounds	
  result	
  in	
  approximately	
  150,000	
  amputations	
  a	
  year,	
  with	
  
about	
  80,000	
  of	
  these	
  attributable	
  to	
  diabetes	
  and	
  peripheral	
  arterial	
  
disease.iii	
  It	
  is	
  estimated	
  that,	
  globally,	
  biofilm	
  infections	
  alone	
  are	
  
over	
  14	
  million,	
  accounting	
  for	
  more	
  than	
  350,000

The	
  fundamental	
  paradigm	
  of	
  moist	
  wound	
  healing,	
  a	
  passive	
  
approach	
  utilizing	
  dressings	
  and	
  technology	
  to	
  create	
  the	
  appropriate	
  
conditions	
  for	
  healing	
  and	
  then	
  letting	
  the	
  wound	
  heal	
  itself,	
  has	
  not	
  
shifted	
  significantly	
  since	
  its	
  inception	
  more	
  than	
  40	
  years	
  ago.v	
  	
  The	
  
longevity	
  of	
  this	
  paradigm	
  is	
  in	
  part	
  because,	
  in	
  most	
  cases,	
  this	
  model	
  
is	
  successful.	
  However,	
  this	
  success	
  does	
  not	
  extend	
  to	
  the	
  most	
  
challenging	
  complex	
  wounds,	
  such	
  as	
  diabetic	
  foot	
  ulcers	
  and	
  those	
  on	
  
limbs	
  with	
  critical	
  limb	
  ischemia.	
  Notwithstanding	
  the	
  widespread	
  
incidence	
  and	
  complex	
  nature	
  of	
  wounds	
  and	
  wound	
  care,	
  and	
  the	
  
development	
  of	
  national,	
  regional,	
  and	
  international	
  guidelines,	
  
relatively	
  few	
  patients	
  receive	
  state-­‐of-­‐the-­‐art	
  or	
  optimal	
  wound	
  care,	
  
even	
  in	
  developed	
  countries.1	
  However	
  there	
  have	
  been	
  recent	
  
indications	
  that	
  this	
  paradigm	
  is	
  beginning	
  to	
  shift	
  as	
  new	
  molecular	
  
and	
  genetic	
  information	
  regarding	
  wound	
  healing	
  and	
  scar	
  
development,vi,vii	
  and	
  microbiologic	
  information	
  regarding	
  biofilm	
  
production	
  and	
  delayed	
  healing,	
  become	
  available.4	
  	
  
	
  
Wounds	
  from	
  surgery	
  and	
  trauma	
  are	
  by	
  far	
  the	
  most	
  common	
  types	
  
of	
  wounds	
  and,	
  with	
  millions	
  of	
  surgical	
  procedures	
  performed	
  
annually	
  worldwide,	
  the	
  market	
  for	
  wound	
  care	
  products	
  and	
  
technologies	
  for	
  surgical	
  wounds	
  alone	
  is	
  significant.	
  Other	
  major	
  
drivers	
  for	
  the	
  wound	
  care	
  industry	
  are	
  aging	
  of	
  the	
  population	
  and	
  
advances	
  in	
  biotechnology	
  are	
  major	
  drivers	
  for	
  the	
  wound	
  care	
  
industry.	
  As	
  the	
  population	
  ages	
  there	
  will	
  continue	
  to	
  be	
  increased	
  
demand	
  for	
  surgical	
  interventions,	
  and	
  diabetic	
  ulcers	
  are	
  expected	
  to	
  
continue	
  to	
  form	
  one	
  of	
  the	
  largest	
  sectors	
  of	
  this	
  market.	
  As	
  
healthcare	
  lumbers	
  slowly	
  towards	
  personalized	
  medicine,	
  there	
  is	
  
also	
  an	
  increasing	
  emphasis	
  being	
  made	
  on	
  personalization	
  of	
  wound	
  
care,	
  a	
  major	
  shift	
  from	
  previous	
  generic	
  treatment	
  methods.	
  
Increasingly,	
  physicians	
  are	
  directly	
  administering	
  Advanced	
  Wound	
  
Care	
  Management	
  products	
  for	
  the	
  treatment	
  of	
  both	
  chronic	
  and	
  
acute	
  wounds,	
  leading	
  to	
  greater	
  success	
  in	
  terms	
  of	
  wound	
  healing.	
  
These	
  factors,	
  combined	
  with	
  a	
  drive	
  towards	
  home	
  healthcare	
  in	
  an	
  
effort	
  to	
  gain	
  cost	
  efficiencies	
  while	
  improving	
  patient	
  outcomes,	
  
acceptance

   market	
   segment,	
  
tissue-­‐engineering	
   products	
   have	
   a	
   very	
   small

   share	
   with	
  
$71.8

Another

  expected	
  future	
  growth	
  within	
  the	
  
Bioengineered

  Advanced	
  Wound

  market	
  is	
  the

stimulation	
  of

  from

  like	
  NPWT.	
  	
  NPWT	
  is	
  also	
  
expected	
  to	
  show	
  continued	
  growth	
  as	
  the	
  home

The	
  global	
  NPWT	
  market,	
  with	
  2009	
  estimates	
  at	
  $640	
  million,	
  is	
  
expected	
  to	
  show	
  growth	
  of	
  8.2%	
  annually	
  over	
  the	
  next	
  seven	
  years,	
  
reaching	
  $1.1	
  billion	
  by	
  2016.	
  Drivers	
  for	
  this	
  growth	
  will	
  primarily	
  be	
  
an	
  increasing	
  incidence	
  of	
  chronic	
  wounds,	
  diabetes,	
  and	
  an	
  aging	
  
population.	
  Although	
  the	
  US	
  remains	
  the	
  largest	
  NPWT	
  market	
  valued	
  
at	
  $380.6m	
  in	
  2009,	
  it	
  is	
  forecast	
  to	
  grow	
  by	
  7.7%	
  annually	
  for	
  the	
  
next	
  seven	
  years	
  to	
  reach	
  $594.6m	
  in	
  2016.xvii	
  However,	
  most	
  of	
  the	
  
demand	
  through	
  2016	
  will	
  be	
  originating	
  from	
  EU	
  economies,	
  
creating	
  a	
  shift	
  in	
  the	
  center	
  of	
  global	
  NPWT

  Italy,

  sectors,	
  with	
  an	
  expectation

21%	
  by	
  2016,	
  driven	
  by

Europe	
  currently

  the	
  global	
  leader	
  in	
  integrating	
  
advanced	
  wound	
  management	
  therapies	
  into	
  the

market.14	
  However	
  the

  of	
  standards	
  and	
  the	
  lack	
  of	
  common	
  
organizations	
  across	
  EU	
  member

  have	
  hindered	
  market

  the	
  Advanced	
  Wound	
  Care	
  (AWCS)	
  of	
  Eucomed	
  (European

  In

  the

  systems	
  continue	
  a	
  paradigm	
  shift	
  from	
  
traditional

  the	
  cost-­‐effectiveness	
  of

including	
  their	
  ability

  The	
  purpose	
  of	
  this

  is	
  to	
  verify	
  the	
  
scope	
  of	
  the

Harrison	
  Hayes	
  actively	
  engages	
  our	
  clients	
  in	
  collaborative,	
  
interactive	
  dialogue	
  throughout	
  the

  We	
  suggest

  with	
  a	
  customized	
  Key

Opinion	
  Leaders	
  (“KOLs”)	
  are	
  recognized	
  experts	
  in	
  the	
  Advanced	
  
Wound	
  Care	
  Management	
  industry.	
  We	
  will	
  look	
  to	
  these	
  KOLs	
  to	
  
provide	
  valuable	
  insight	
  into	
  the	
  best	
  mechanisms	
  for	
  leveraging	
  of	
  
adjacencies	
  to	
  core	
  competencies	
  in	
  Advanced	
  Wound	
  Care	
  
Management	
  particularly,	
  but	
  not	
  exclusively,	
  in	
  Europe.	
  
	
  
The	
  KOL	
  questionnaire	
  will	
  be	
  developed	
  through	
  a	
  collaborative	
  
effort	
  with	
  CLIENT	
  X	
  in	
  order	
  to	
  ensure	
  that	
  the	
  focus	
  of	
  this	
  project	
  is	
  
being	
  properly	
  addressed.	
  The	
  questionnaire	
  is	
  to	
  be	
  used	
  as	
  a	
  
platform	
  for	
  exploration	
  and	
  discussion.	
  All	
  interviews	
  will	
  be	
  
conducted	
  directly	
  by	
  Harrison	
  Hayes’s	
  Principals	
  and	
  Research	
  Team	
  
who	
  have	
  the	
  autonomy	
  to	
  probe	
  deeper	
  and	
  maneuver	
  through	
  
unique	
  issues	
  that	
  arise	
  during	
  discussion	
  with	
  the	
  KOLs	
  –	
  what	
  we	
  
refer	
  to	
  as	
  improvisational	
  interviewing.	
  	
  Our	
  Research	
  Team	
  is	
  able	
  
to	
  select	
  the	
  most	
  appropriate	
  questions	
  to	
  ask	
  each	
  KOL	
  due	
  to	
  our	
  
extensive	
  knowledge	
  and	
  involvement	
  with	
  the	
  project’s	
  goals.	
  These	
  
interviews	
  are	
  conducted	
  individually,	
  which	
  allows	
  us	
  to	
  focus	
  
directly	
  on	
  the	
  expertise	
  that	
  each	
  KOL	
  possesses.	
  Improvisational	
  
interviewing	
  yields	
  valuable	
  qualitative	
  interview	
  data	
  unlike	
  
structured	
  interview	
  surveys.	
  Instead	
  of	
  merely	
  moving	
  from	
  question	
  
to	
  question,	
  our	
  Research	
  Team	
  is	
  able	
  to	
  adapt	
  based	
  on	
  KOLs’	
  
response	
  to	
  questions,	
  thus	
  obtaining	
  additional	
  insight.

  • 3.            2   CLIENT  X  -­‐  Whitespace  Ideation  Study:     Mid  Term  Opportunities  Within  Wound  Care  -­‐        Confidential     INTRODUCTION   Modern  wound  care  is  a  complex  process  supported  worldwide  by   obtuse  and  heterogeneous  funding  and  reimbursement  systems.   Wound  care  is  an  integral  part  of  all  areas  of  healthcare  and  all  types   of  practice,  and  the  patient  population  encompasses  the  spectrum   from  infants  to  the  elderly.  Wound  care  may  involve  acute  wounds   (e.g.,  trauma  and  surgical  incisions)  or  chronic  wounds  (e.g.,  pressure   ulcers,  or  vascular  or  diabetic  ulcers).i  Currently,  chronic  wound  and   ulcer  management  remains  one  of  the  most  costly  healthcare   challenges.  ii  In  the  US  alone,  complex  wounds  affect  more  patients   than  heart  attack  and  stroke  combined,  involving  5-­‐7  million  patients   and  over  $20  billion  in  healthcare  expenditures.  These  complex   wounds  result  in  approximately  150,000  amputations  a  year,  with   about  80,000  of  these  attributable  to  diabetes  and  peripheral  arterial   disease.iii  It  is  estimated  that,  globally,  biofilm  infections  alone  are   over  14  million,  accounting  for  more  than  350,000  deaths.iv       UK  NHS  Annual  spending  on  different  types  of  wounds.  From:  Tissue  viability  in   tomorrow’s  NHS.  R  White.  Journal  of  Wound  Care  17(3):97-­‐99.  Figure  3,  p.99.  March   2008.
