BioStorage Technologies offers comprehensive sample lifecycle management solutions for human and animal biospecimens, and for plant and environmental specimens. Its portfolio of services includes sample management consulting, industry-leading onsite, offsite and hybrid biorepositories, sample preparation lab services, sample bioprocessing and analytics, and ISIDOR®, a transformational technology solution for sample and research data integration. BioStorage Technologies, Inc. is based in Indianapolis, Indiana, with additional biorepository and sample processing facilities in the US, Europe, Singapore, and China. The parent company of Brooks Life Science Systems is Brooks Automation (NASDAQ: BRKS), headquartered in Chelmsford, MA.
挑战
BioStorage Technologies, a subsidiary of Brooks Life Science Systems, aimed to become the leading innovator of comprehensive sample lifecycle management solutions. They wanted to integrate clinical trial data, research data, biorepository data, biobank data, and laboratory data scattered across various locations globally. The data types, sources, and locations posed a significant challenge for effective data management. Before the ISIDOR platform, end consumers of biological samples had to engage in long, convoluted processes to gain insights from sample data and make decisions for therapy, research, or academic purposes. BioStorage wanted to consolidate all the data in the cloud for easy access from anywhere around the world. They also aimed to capture a wide-view of the sample to deliver more value to clinical trials by providing insights to disparate blended data sets.
解决方案
In response to customers' need to have a 360-degree view of their bio-sample inventory, BioStorage developed the ISIDOR platform. The platform was built on a foundation of the Amazon hosting platform, the Denodo Platform, which enabled data virtualization, and the MicroStrategy data visualization platform. The BioStorage data delivery mechanism is founded upon three pillars of value creation - virtualization, visualization, and valorization. To support data virtualization, BioStorage uses the Denodo Platform to consolidate global sample inventory to create a logical data warehouse, which virtually connects global sample data to relevant research data, and enables customers to access sample data anytime, from anywhere around the world. To support visualization, BioStorage helps create visual dashboards and reports of sample data for analytics and business insights. Finally, to support valorization, BioStorage helps customers select the best samples that are authorized for use in research.

Case Study
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.
