Akzo Nobel pharmaceutical business unit deploys Portal-in-a-Box to make research more efficient
CAMBRIDGE, England, 11 June, 2001 - Autonomy Corporation plc (Nasdaq: AUTN; LSE: AU.; Nasdaq Europe: AUTN), a leading provider of infrastructure software for the Web and the enterprise, today announced that Organon, Akzo Nobel's pharmaceutical business unit, has chosen Autonomy's Portal-in-a-Box technology to power its global project Time to Market.
Time to Market is a global project designed to automate the delivery of the right information to the right people at the right time, put people with similar expertise in touch with one another and reduce product development cycles, therefore increasing efficiency.
Organon is the largest Dutch research-based pharmaceutical company and the largest pharmaceutical business unit of Akzo Nobel. The number of employees has grown to nearly 10,000 and the company is active in more than 100 countries with its own affiliates in 55.
Using Portal-in-a-Box, Organon will be able to automatically aggregate, categorise, hypertext-link, personalise and deliver business-critical information concerning all aspects of drug development and related issues, including healthcare, legislation, and marketing. No manual intervention will be necessary in this process.
Richard Gaunt, co-founder and Chief Technology Officer at Autonomy, commented: "Autonomy makes sense of information that is often vital, but simply too profuse to exploit manually. Organon produces highly specialised products for which highly relevant and timely information is necessary. Given the objectives for Time to Market, Autonomy was the natural choice. We are very pleased to welcome Organon to an international list of blue-chip pharmaceutical clients, which includes AstraZeneca and Novartis."
Rene van den Berselaar, Head of Special Projects at Organon's Infocenter, commented: "The nature of our business means that we have to deal with enormous volumes of unstructured information. The information is vital to us, but managing it manually is just not an option any more. Using Autonomy's infrastructure technology, we can automate the processes that have to be carried out on unstructured information, thus reducing our costs and, ultimately, accelerating our time to market. There is a powerful commercial advantage to be had from Autonomy, particularly as it can be deployed so rapidly."
At the heart of Autonomy's software is its ability to analyse text and voice and identify and rank the main concepts within it. It can then automatically categorise, link, personalise and deliver that information. The technology is used to automate these operations within enterprise information portals, customer relationship management, knowledge management and e-business applications.
