Overview
For the past few decades, as we moved from paper-based content to electronic files, we have kept a clear distinction between documents and data, and the context in which this content was used. Data was managed in structured databases, analysed, then transferred manually, and documents were recreated over and over again and stored in Electronic Document Management (eDM) systems.
Today this separation is slowly disappearing as new technologies, such as Extensible Mark-up Language (XML), bring documents, data and other forms of information together in one melting pot. This evolution is welcome and opens new perspectives in areas such as collaboration, reuse, review, analysis and records management. It also creates new challenges and pharmaceutical professionals will need to revise their view and practices and gradually move from traditional data and document management to information and content management.
DIA has always been in the forefront of new ideas and technologies and will once more offer a privileged forum for discussing, understanding and addressing the new challenges of information management.

Tutorial Co-Instructors:
Eldin rammell, Managing Director, Rammell Consulting Limited, UK Karen redding, Business Development Director, Phlexglobal Ltd, UK
This tutorial will provide a comprehensive overview of the issues involved in implementing an electronic trial master file. In addition to covering foundation principles such as “what is the trial master file”, this interactive session will provide guidance in a wide range of related aspects, including:
• what do the regulations say about eTMFs • how should documents be filed in an eTMF • metadata and naming conventions • what formats are acceptable
• how can the eTMF be reviewed by end-users, auditors and inspectors • how can an eTMF support global clinical trials
• how is the eTMF populated and maintained • what are the validation requirements • does an eTMF need electronic signatures lEArNINg oBJECTIvES
1. Understand the regulatory requirements for eTMFs 2. Recognise the impact of an eTMF on trial-related processes 3. Understand different approaches to eTMF design 4. Participate actively in project planning and implementation 5. Develop useful user requirements for an eTMF
6. Evaluate potential IT solutions

Tutorial Co-Instructors:
Thomas Altenwerth, Head of Global Regulatory Affairs Archives Wuppertal, Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals, Germany
russell Joyce, Director & Principal Consultant, Heath Barrowcliff Consulting Ltd, UK This tutorial will provide an important foundation for conference participants towards a holistic view on documentation practice. Documentation is a key asset to develop and market pharmaceutical products. Whilst focussing on document preparation, the value of your documents post finalisation should not be neglected. Ideally this can be addressed by building in Records Management practices right from the beginning. This tutorial will help leverage a full and efficient control over your documentation by covering:
• key aspects of Document and Records Management, their overlap and difference • paper vs. electronic
• implementation of records management processes • meta data and retrieval
• electronic Archiving: challenges of long-term retention • requirements for technology and systems
• non-submission documents and other data sources • practical examples
KEy lEArNINg oBJECTIvES
• know the difference between Document, Records Management and Archiving • know why all three are important – and when
• know the framework with its relevant regulations and industry standards • know what can you expect from Systems and Tools
• know the relevant questions towards the best approach for your organisation

The first eCTD experiences were focused towards a single product for a single region/country. Now eCTDs have become daily business many companies, it has to fit in daily business. Companies have to create and maintain dossiers for all their products registered in a wide variety of countries, resulting in specific dossier. Even if it concerns country-specific dossiers, the majority of documents could be reused. However, most companies are struggling with handling a single source of documents and creating a variety of country-specific dossiers in different formats managed by various groups of people around the world. Experience and lessons learned at pharma-companies will be shared.

eDM has been around for a long time in pharmaceuticals and eDM systems have become an integral part of the infrastructure in all big companies. Nevertheless, new challenges emerge daily: smaller companies need to address documentation management in a cost-efficient way, federation of R&D resources is forced upon the industry by the markets and collaboration at all levels is made possible thanks to new technical possibilities. Where are we going from here? A snapshot view of the state of the eDM is a must at this time.

Session Chairperson:

This session will address to other aspects associated to electronic document/data management, namely compound authoring and electronic signatures. After the closure of the PIM project, alternatives have to be explored to address the same business need. DITA OASIS Standard (www.dita.xml.org), an XML architecture for designing, writing, managing, and publishing information might offer a solution. The other topic will address the benefits and constraints of electronic signatures as alternative for internal paper based approval procedures and wet signatures on paper documents.
