analysis, enabling faster decision mak- ing and improving productivity.


Building on a history of informatics innovations, CONNECTS provides ac- cess to all instrument data via a single interface and allows real-time analysis and investigation of results. The tech- nology converts raw data to a vendor independent XML storage format to ensure future proof data archiving and


Thermo Scientific CONNECTS™ for the Paperless Lab: Methodology: a comprehensive solutions-oriented consultation delivers an assessment of an organization’s current level of laboratory automation, instrument integration and workflow. The assessment highlights potential ROI, operational gains and a plan for implementing solutions that address instances where current workflow relies on human intervention, which can be the cause of bottlenecks or introduce errors.


Technology: the vendor neutral suite of data integration, visualization and management technologies delivers comprehensive laboratory workflow automation, integrating instruments and equipment and connecting data sources with data destinations. The technology enables consolidation of analytical results, including access to raw data and instruments from web browsers and mobile devices.


Services: pre- and post-implementation consulting services are optimized to deliver current and future paperless environments, enabling real-time decision making based on access to aggregated information from the en- tire organization. CONNECTS Services are based on proven methodology for delivering successful projects using industry best practices.


facilitate data and information sharing across the organization, without having to rely on access to the original appli- cation. CONNECTS technology acts as a ‘translator’ of all the individual languages of the lab’s disparate instru- ments and is able to deliver and accept data in the format appropriate for each instrument.
