Software Developer Creates an Affordable, Flexible Lab Information Management System

Overview

Sciformatix wanted to make it easier and more cost-effective for scientists and other laboratory workers to manage information and processes, so the company is developing a new laboratory information management system known as SciLIMS. To do so, Sciformatix used Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and a software-plus-services delivery model, which will result in a full-featured, subscription-based solution that users can access through rich-client, browser-based, and mobile interfaces. Sciformatix is bringing its solution to market at least 15 percent faster than it could have with other development tools and has reduced development costs by 25 percent or more.
