Talking Laboratories

Description

FOR OUR COMMERCIAL PARTNERS

MARCOMMS

You want marketing materials that resonate with the unique needs of the lab buyer. We help with everything, digital marketing, webinar speaker bureau, blogging, article writing, collateral and more.

SALES ENABLEMENT

We understand that ‘marketing awareness’ materials don’t fit the short- term needs of the sales team. Our passion is developing ROI tools, executive summaries, customer use cases, in a way that truly resonates with the clinical laboratory buyer.

FOR OUR CLINICAL PARTNERS

CLINICAL LAB DECISION WORKFLOW AND RULES - AUTOVERFICATION 

We provide tools and techniques that support clinical lab validation and verification processes for IT software products, with deep experience in clinical decision workflow and rule logic. We approach every project using comprehensive validation plans with risk-based methodologies that support your quality and regulatory compliance benchmarks.

LAB/IT WORKFLOW OPTIMIZATION

You know that auto-verification could be the answer to saving valuable tech time — implementing it is not something you have time or resources for at this moment. Stop putting off this vital capability. Let us help you get your auto-verification program going.

LAB/IT APPLICATION AND INTERFACES

The process of implementing instruments, middleware, and other application interfaces is time-consuming. The devil is in the details to ensure a seamless handshake between systems. We provide the support you need to make those connections more efficiently and effectively so you can go live faster.
