measures to a cloud vendor makes data more secure and reduces the burden for a lab’s internal IT staff.

CGM LABDAQ Avunjian suggested, “Look for a vendor that’s aligned


with the laboratory’s long-term success. This is often reflected in the vendor’s pricing model. If the pricing model includes large and front-loaded capital expen- ditures, this can hamper or delay the lab’s ability to scale up.” Futrell adds, “First, you need an LIS vendor partner with


enough foresight and flexibility to be able to change and grow alongside your organization. Second, you need reli- able service and support for the lifetime of the software. And third, you must consider the total cost of ownership (TCO) in your organization’s budget.”
