Challenge
Operating a global biorepository network that safeguards irreplaceable biologic assets brings significant operational challenges:
- Complex Infrastructure: Multiple locations of maintaining various on-premises solutions on their own servers leading to siloed data and inconsistent visibility and support challenges.
- Slow Data Access: Responding to customer and regulatory requests often required compiling years of historical data, a time-consuming and resource-intensive process.
- Ongoing Maintenance Burden: Each site had to support its own servers, applications, and updates, increasing costs and operational risk.
Solution
FacilityConneX partnered with Amphenol/Kaye Instruments to develop a new GxP-compliant cloud solution, LabWatch IoT, in collaboration with Thermo Fisher, to modernize biorepository operations through a centralized, cloud-based platform. The solution included:
- Centralized Monitoring: Unified system to track environmental controls and conditions across all facilities in real time.
- Instant Access to Historical Data: On-demand reporting capabilities that eliminated delays in customer and compliance requests.
- Reduced IT Burden: Cloud delivery removed the need for on-site server maintenance and software patching.
- Scalable Infrastructure: The platform seamlessly supports growth across new sites and assets without additional IT complexity.
