About The Customer
SomaLogic Inc. is a leader in AI-data driven proteomics technology. The company seeks to deliver precise, meaningful, and actionable health management information that empowers individuals worldwide to continuously optimize their personal health and wellness. With the ability to simultaneously measure thousands of proteins over a wide range of concentrations, SomaLogic’s groundbreaking platform is designed to help drive better insights and improved clinical outcomes.
The Challenge
To stay ahead in the highly regulated and competitive life sciences market, SomaLogic needed to fast-track innovation and demonstrate compliance with various industry regulations and standards. Previously, SomaLogic relied on a content management tool to maintain their product and quality records. Because that system primarily focused on document management, it did not provide SomaLogic visibility and traceability across the full product record. This made it harder for SomaLogic to drive compliance and meet their new product development and introduction (NPDI) goals.
The Solution
Arena provides SomaLogic a product-centric framework to manage quality processes. SomaLogic needed a system that they could easily adopt without the burden of a costly IT infrastructure or a lengthy implementation. They chose Arena’s cloud-based quality management system (QMS) for its ease of use and ability to scale with their growing business. Unlike traditional document-based systems, Arena QMS links all of SomaLogic’s product information and quality processes in a single platform. By managing linked relationships between bills of materials (BOMs), quality records, design files, and any changes or quality issues, this product-centric approach to QMS provides SomaLogic greater visibility, traceability, and control throughout the entire product lifecycle and reduces compliance risks. Consulting with Arena’s solution architects, customer success coaches, and other industry experts also enables SomaLogic to utilize Arena QMS to its full potential and keep their processes running smoothly.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
