Considering an IT Investment For Your Clinical Diagnostics Lab? Help is Here

Next-generation sequencing data analysis management systems are the backbone of clinical diagnostics labs, providing vital functionality for day-to-day workings and business delivery. As a result, decisions about the tools to invest in can have far-reaching implications. 

Would it be best to improve, augment or entirely replace your existing systems? 

Which is the most resource intensive? 

Cost effective? 

Secure?

These aren’t the only questions.

Other considerations include scalability and future expansion potential, flexibility, and impacts on operations and turnaround time. 

It can be overwhelming. Luckily, we’re here to help, with two new guides to help you assess your current and future needs, and how to achieve them. 

Build vs. Buy: Six Questions to Consider When Investigating Clinical Diagnostics Informatics Solutions

Feeling like a victim of your own success? As testing demand increases, so does complexity, and IT issues that were once hidden are probably starting to surface. Experiencing unplanned downtime, difficulty deploying new pipelines, and challenges in finding and accessing data? These could bottleneck future growth.

Sounds like you need a reliable system that is prepared to grow alongside you. Custom-built Cloud solutions provide scalability, security, and lots of other benefits, which we outline in this Whitepaper. We’ll walk you through the decision-making process, and point out the advantages and disadvantages of the different IT solutions.

10 Tips to Scale Your Diagnostics Business & Grow Your Test Portfolio Globally

Ready to take your business to the next level? Great! If that involves expanding your footprint, either locally or globally, things could get complicated, especially when it comes to data sharing, storage and access. Are you prepared to navigate all the data sovereignty requirements and IP protection across locations? Do you know how to control access to pipeline algorithms and sensitive health data, and to comply with regionally-specific regulations?

By bringing all production pipelines into a single, unified cloud environment, with version-controlled pipeline updates rolled out simultaneously across your locales, you can effectively manage growth. This Whitepaper lays it all out, and explain why letting experts do the heavy lifting can pay dividends.
