San Francisco, CA, January 13, 2003 - AmerisourceBergen, the largest pharmaceutical services company in the United States and a Fortune 50 company, today kicked off the development of their new corporate web portal redesign with Extractable. Extractable will assist AmerisourceBergen in focusing its web site on improved customer support and access to information. The new site will serve as the entry point to AmerisourceBergen's vast range of pharmaceutical supply chain services, from health systems technology to retail pharmaceutical ordering and management.
AmerisourceBergen chose Extractable for their strong experience in corporate web site design and user interface development. The site will be the primary entry point for a diverse group of partners, customers, and patients. Extractable will work to segment these audiences and provide the information they need quickly and easily. "This relationship greatly bolsters our position as a leading technology development firm in the pharmaceutical and life sciences industry," noted Craig McLaughlin, President of Extractable. "We are thrilled to be working with such a respected partner."
The AmerisourceBergen project will require the use of Extractable' experience with web marketing strategy, information architecture, user interface design, and creative design. Extractable was also selected as a partner to create strategic designs that leverage an extensive knowledge of the company's technical and application infrastructure, including Interwoven's TeamSite platform and IBM's WebSphere technology.
