Get Clarity Before You Commit to Your Next Major Technology Decision
When you're facing a LIMS migration, system consolidation, or major automation project, the wrong choice can cost you months of rework and validation delays.
We help diagnostic labs make confident technology decisions backed by real-world experience. No sales pitch, no vendor partnerships - just clear thinking about what will actually work for your operation.
Whether you're evaluating a new LIMS, planning to retire legacy systems, or figuring out how to scale your informatics for growth - we'll help you make the right call.

These Challenges Probably Sound Familiar
You're facing a major technology decision with high stakes and conflicting advice.
Every vendor promises their solution is perfect for your lab, but you've seen the gap between sales demos and operational reality. You need someone who can help you evaluate options objectively.
Your current systems are limiting growth.
Change requests pile up, your team builds workarounds instead of solutions, and you're not sure if the answer is a new platform or better optimization. Sometimes the problem isn't the technology - it's how you're using it.
You've been burned before.
Past implementations ran over budget, under-delivered on promises, or created more problems than they solved. This time, you need to get it right.
How We Work
Lab-Native Expertise
We're not general IT consultants who occasionally work with labs. We've implemented LIMS platforms, designed specimen tracking workflows, and managed through CAP inspections. When we recommend an approach, it's based on what actually works in regulated lab environments - not what looks good on paper.
Vendor-Neutral Advisory
We don't sell systems or receive referral fees from vendors. Our only commitment is helping you make the right decision for your specific situation. We start by understanding your workflows and constraints, then design the technology strategy to match. Not the other way around.
Practical, Actionable Roadmaps
We deliver clear recommendations you can actually implement. Every plan includes validation considerations, risk mitigation steps, and realistic timelines. Because strategy without execution is just expensive documentation.
Proven Through Transitions
We've helped labs navigate complex technology transitions - scaling operations, consolidating after mergers, modernizing legacy infrastructure. We understand what works, where the risks hide, and how to move from reactive problem-solving to strategic modernization.
When Labs Typically Engage Us
These are the most common situations where strategic consulting delivers measurable value
LIMS Vendor Selection
Evaluating 3-5 LIMS vendors, unclear which fits best
Objective comparison, demo coordination, contract negotiation support
Legacy System Retirement Strategy
15+ year old system, afraid of migration risks
Risk assessment, phased migration planning, validation strategy
Multi-Site System Consolidation
Multiple locations on different systems, need unified approach
Consolidation strategy, change management, rollout planning
Automation ROI Analysis
Considering automation investment, need business case
Process analysis, ROI modeling, vendor evaluation
Informatics Team Structure
Growing lab, unclear how to staff informatics function
Organizational design, role definitions, build vs outsource analysis
Regulatory Compliance Gap Analysis
CAP/CLIA inspection coming, system compliance uncertain
Compliance assessment, remediation roadmap, documentation gaps
Don't see your specific challenge? We've likely addressed something similar.
Describe Your SituationOur Approach
Discovery Call (30 minutes, complimentary)
We start with a straightforward conversation about your challenges and objectives. No scripted pitch. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you upfront and point you toward better options if we can.
Assessment & Analysis
We work with your team to understand your current systems, workflows, and future requirements. This typically includes stakeholder interviews, system reviews, and documentation analysis. We're focused on understanding what's really happening, not just what the org chart says should be happening.
Roadmap & Recommendations
We deliver a prioritized plan with specific recommendations, vendor evaluations (if needed), implementation phases, and budget considerations. It's designed to give your leadership team confidence, your technical staff a clear path forward, and your operations team visibility into what changes and when.
What You Receive
Systems Assessment Report
A comprehensive review of your current technology landscape, identifying gaps, risks, and opportunities. You'll understand exactly where you stand and what needs to change.
Vendor-Agnostic Evaluation
If you're considering new platforms, we provide an unbiased analysis of LIMS, middleware, and automation tools based on your specific requirements - not vendor marketing materials.
Phased Implementation Roadmap
A step-by-step plan with clear milestones, estimated timelines, validation checkpoints, and budget considerations. Designed to minimize operational disruption while delivering measurable improvements.
Executive Summary Presentation
A concise presentation that translates technical recommendations into business outcomes. Useful for securing leadership buy-in and stakeholder alignment.
Transparent Project Pricing
We work on a fixed-fee basis for strategic consulting. After our initial discovery call, we'll provide a scoped proposal with clear deliverables and pricing - no hourly billing, no surprise fees. Engagements are customized to your specific needs, and we're upfront about cost from the start.
