ORTHO:
BRINGING LIFE TO A 75-YEAR-OLD START-UP
 

Ortho Clinical Diagnostics brand value video

CHALLENGE: Ortho, a pioneer in in vitro diagnostics, had journeyed from Kodak to J&J ownership. The question: Who would Ortho become next?

SOLUTION: After research and interim positioning (“Reimagining What’s Possible”) earned multiple global awards, we defined a new brand promise: “Because Every Test Is A Life.”

This human-centric message connected lab work to real-world positive patient outcomes.

EXTERNAL BRAND ACTIVATION:
• Revamped web experience with user-centric design
Targeted social media and visual storytelling
• Editorial standards and messaging playbook
Mobile lab demos and streamlined global RFP process
Improved issues comms, reducing call center load
• C-suite presentations and investor messaging
• Product automation positioning

INTERNAL BRAND AMPLIFICATION:
• Global brand standards and creative asset library
LMS brand training and live WebEx sessions
Intranet resources, “how-to” videos, and newsletters
Brand ambassador programs and team workshops

RESULTS: Steady NPS growth and global recognition for innovation, customer service, and brand excellence. Ortho went IPO and outperformed competitors with first-to-market COVID-19 tests.

"After our carveout from J&J, Rob forged a modern, new, cohesive identity at Ortho, both internally and externally, that reinvigorated the entire company.” — Jane Ward, Senior Director, Corporate Affairs at Bristol Myers Squibb
