The Merck group, based in Darmstadt, Germany, comprises 168 firms in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry in 56 countries. Clinical trials are executed using various software systems, including a back-end trial management system connected to an Oracle database. Forms and workflows have to be able to transfer information to the system and process extracted data. Because the trial management system is deployed on a global scale, it has to be operated using a Web browser to ensure direct intranet access to forms for Merck employees and VPN access for external partners. Adobe server software provided all the solutions required to create and manage flexible form layouts and intelligent documents.
