1. A system comprising:
- a first data feed;
a second data feed;
a processing engine configured to;
receive the first data feed and the second data feed;
parse the first data feed into first data and the second data feed into second data;
assemble a first unique key based upon the first data, wherein the first unique key comprises at least one of a package quantity identifier, a therapeutic class identifier, a clinical formulation identifier, an additional detail identifier, a package size equivalent identifier, or a unit dose identifier;
assemble a second unique key based upon the second data, wherein the second unique key comprises at least one of a package quantity identifier, a therapeutic class identifier, a clinical formulation identifier, an additional detail identifier, a package size equivalent identifier, or a unit dose identifier;
determine a relationship between the first data and the second data by comparing the first unique key and the second unique key;
analyze the relationship to create output data, wherein the output data comprises at least one of;
a cost effectiveness of purchasing a drug product from different suppliers, a determination of a lowest cost per unit of the drug product, a manufacturer market share for the drug product, or a strategy for submitting a contract bid for the drug product;
a database configured to store the first unique key, the second unique key and the output data; and
,a reporting engine configured to generate reports based at least partially on the output data.
