Instrument and System Integrations

Making Your Data More Valuable

Instrument and system integrations are often afterthoughts in laboratory informatics implementations. These integrations don’t always happen, leaving your organization with siloed data that can’t be easily accessed for data-driven decision-making. Organizations often struggle with the potential loss of data through the need to decommission or consolidate data. Platform integrations alleviate this struggle; data can be ingested and then made available, allowing for full decommissioning to take place.

Finding qualified providers to integrate instruments post-deployment or in the absence of a LIMS or ELN can be challenging because: 

  • Instrument makers will integrate their instruments but not others.
  • Informatics providers will integrate instruments to their products, but what if you don’t have their product but still want to get value now?
  • Some third-party consultants advertise instrument integration services but lack the requisite knowledge of laboratory workflows and processes or deep expertise with modern technologies. 

The needs for future-proof holistic data ecosystems, digital transformations, generative AI use, and findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) data mean that organizations want better integration of instruments and systems with platforms or data lakes and warehouses. 


But how do you get there?

…that’s where CSols comes in.


CSols Integration Projects Deliver…

Data First Culture Approach: Integrated data is worthless if people cannot understand it or use it. CSols focuses primarily on how the data will be used and then finds fit-for-purpose solutions.

High Quality Data Focus: Right First Time is our accountability promise, not only internally at CSols but also with every engagement. We monitor metrics to ensure high-quality work.

One Team Engagements: Engagement is critical from day one. CSols projects are managed with a one-team approach—our client and internal team members work hand in hand.

Customer First Experience: Everyone learns as we go; what is needed from the project will evolve with that learning. Using an iterative model allows the learnings to be applied immediately.

That Means You Get…
