Total Value Proposal

The Company - The company you choose for your LIMS is an important consideration. there are a variety of factors to consider here: What is their overall philosophy? Are they financially viable? What's their track record like? Do they make themselves available easily?

LABLynx has been a leader in the industry since introducing the first true web browser-based LIMS in 1997, and currently offers the most advanced, state-of-the-art LIMS available, with ERP-class functionality, and scalability/flexibility to suit your needs well into the future -- all at a cost far below anything even remotely comparable. And that sums up our basic outlook. We believe in efficiency as the route to ultimate value. We seek to deliver the most for the least, and practice that philosophy even within our workplace. Our bottom line is healthy and sound, thanks to efficient corporate practices. Our team is hand-picked for their expertise, experience and ability to adapt. We carry no fat (not even a sales force) and don't indulge in intemperate spending. We don't like to waste your time or money, and that has led to a successful track record, as our approach is always the most direct and effective way to complete any tasks set before us. This approach, combined with a clear, forward-looking vision, has meant consistent leadership in the industry, as we continue to set the standards.

Additionally, we know that a satisfied customer is the most efficient, effective way to build business. So if we over-extend in any area, it is always that of Customer Service. Because, ultimately, time spent in performing at and above customer expectations is investment in our company's viability. That's efficient, and you reap the benefits.

The Team - The company is a product of the individuals involved. Do they have the expertise necessary to deliver the product successfully and are they people you can work with? How well do they understand your workflows and processes? Do they really “ get it ” ?

Our personnel are laboratory industry professionals with extensive IT experience and credentials, offering you a combined 75+ years of expertise in these areas. So when it comes to understanding your needs, we're on the same page. We are comfortable in the laboratory environment and can communicate with you in your own language. We know first-hand what the day-to-day requirements for successful job performance are and what you need from your LIMS and the people who are supporting it. We look forward to working together with you to form the strongest team possible to make your LIMS experience a winner.

The Solution - You can feel confident in the fact that when you own ELab, you own the most configurable, scalable and powerful LIMS there has ever been, utilizing the best technology there is to ensure that it can handle all of your needs and more…not only in the present, but as you grow and change over time. Its web browser-based platform is ideal both for ease of deployment and access, and for maintenance and upgrades. Most support can take place with zero interruption of daily workflow or extra costs like travel, since they can be done from our own site without even seeing your desktop pc. And our Service-Oriented Architecture means you are all set to instantly leverage the latest functionalities as they appear well into the next decade. And our menu of LIMS and other products, and our professional services, are all scalable to fit your specific needs, with solutions ranging from $2500 to $500,000, or webLIMS with no cost of ownership at all!

The Implementation Plan - Is it complete? Is it sensible and realistic? Does it fit your situation? LABLynx has modified and refined our Implementation Plan template until we are confident it is the very best route to navigate your project to a successful completion. Our phased approach is based on thorough research and planning at the front, to avoid "scope creep" and obstacles that can extend a project into an open-ended albatross. First, we offer free functional and infrastructure requirements assessment even before you select us, providing you with a Laboratory Informatics Institute standard LIMSpec that helps you tailor the solution to your needs. That minimizes the initial gap between the COTS product and your unique installation. Then, when the system has been initially installed, we perform a line-by-line comparison of your requirements and the existing features and functionalities. This gives us an accurate and complete quantification of the remaining configuration and configuration tasks with which to create the finalized, precise project plan. At each stage we deliver the appropriate training and validation testing, and our Project Manager ensures effective communication and attention to deliverables throughout the implementation. It's all backed up by sterling maintenance and support, and when you Go Live we'll be right there beside you to ensure your system's smooth transition to successful daily operation.

Demonstration - Here's where the "rubber hits the road." Does the vendor give you a chance to "test-drive"? Our demo process is not conducted by a sales person, as we do not have a sales department. We offer straightforward information and demonstration by an industry professional – in most cases the same person who will be working with you on your LIMS Implementation Project.

Once you've seen ELab in action, we can take it a step further, give you an account and let you operate the LIMS yourself in your own time and at your own pace. There's no need to install any software. Just climb in and turn the key...

Track Record - How is the company's history? Does it show a legacy of successful implementations? Were they relevant to your type of lab? A litany of superlative references may not always represent a true picture either. There are few implementations where just everything went perfectly and no problems were encountered. Look for the company whose references will tell you there were challenges encountered, but the vendor tackled them effectively and in a timely manner. Very often, it's these experiences that strengthen a team and reveal a company's true character. 

Cost - The LABLynx catalog of Product and Services offerings presents a range of combinations you can choose to suit your unique requirements.
