About Arterium

Founded in 2005, Arterium is a leading Ukrainian pharmaceutical company with a presence in over 5 countries. The corporation employs more than 2,300 specialists and maintains a product portfolio of 176 pharmaceutical items. As a GMP-compliant manufacturer, Arterium prioritizes operational excellence and transparency across all business processes.

The Challenge

Arterium aimed to implement a fair, measurable, and regular evaluation process for its employees. Bonuses and incentives were previously distributed without a structured performance framework—often based on assumptions rather than facts.

There was no unified system to track employee performance, and underperformance frequently went unnoticed or unaddressed. As a result, bonuses were paid regardless of goal completion, draining company resources and eroding trust in the fairness of rewards.

To align with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards and improve HR decision-making, Arterium needed to digitize and automate the evaluation process.

Nectain’s Task

Nectain was tasked with implementing a structured, GMP-compliant system for employee performance evaluation and goal management.

Automating Performance Management in Line with GMP Standards

Project Highlights

Streamlined talent management

Competency scores are now used to support internal promotions, role changes, and hiring decisions.

Results

img 30% cost reduction in the first year

Within two performance cycles, Arterium discovered that nearly a third of prior incentive payouts had no factual basis. These funds were reallocated toward high-performing staff and strategic talent programs.

img Increased trust and transparency

Employees now understand how and why bonuses are assigned. Objective performance data, rather than managerial discretion, determines outcomes.

img Better goal alignment

With goals now tracked in a single system, managers can better monitor progress, adjust strategies, and drive accountability across departments.

img Zero manual paperwork

All evaluation documents are auto-generated, signed, and archived—fully digital, fully secure.

img Payback Period

Although cost savings weren’t the original goal, the financial impact was undeniable. The system paid for itself in under a year, simply by eliminating inefficiencies and unjustified payouts.
