Abstract
Introduction:
The results feature a summary of surgeons' perceptions regarding the
importance of specific features in evaluating manufacturers, as well as the
relative performance of featured manufacturers. The analysis includes a
multivariate metric to compare the relative positioning of competing
manufacturers. Also included is a positioning of competitive manufacturers
based on the perceived strength of association with listed qualities.
The results of the data analysis indicate Mentor, Inamed, Ethicon and Allergan
are perceived to be superior to the other featured companies. Product
efficacy, clinical data and cost are identified as the attributes most
important in determining preferences. The relative performance of the
companies varies on the featured attributes, as well as their perceived
positioning on general considerations. The product surgeons most strongly
associate with each featured company is identified, and for some companies the
strength of association is much greater.
The information has applicability to advertising, sales, communications,
product launches, forecasting, and strategic planning, as well as other
business functions.
Methodology and Purpose of this Research
100 American Medical Association (AMA) board certified plastic surgeons were
randomly selected from a list of 6300 surgeons to participate in a
self-administered questionnaire (SAQ) featured on the internet. Upon
completion of the SAQ, 20 of the participants were selected to participate in
a follow-up depth interview conducted via the telephone.
The purpose of the study is to develop an overview of the perceived
positioning of featured companies and the considerations associated with
determining a company' s position.
