Managing the Needs of Each Laboratory Lifecycle Stage

As people develop and age, the resources and expertise they require changes too. When you are young, you need a pediatrician, as you get older, you need a primary care physician, as well as all types of specialists in between, depending on your needs. The same is true for the laboratory industry. At different points throughout the growth of a business line, priorities will evolve, and in turn, so will your strategies and support systems. These transitions can pose different challenges, and your regular, daily role and responsibilities don’t pause. Many of these new milestones are a full-time job of their own. This is why you need an experienced, trusted, professional partner who can provide you peace of mind through each stage of your laboratory’s lifecycle.

Laboratory Start-Up

Each lab needs the instrumentation and assets necessary to provide the performance and results you need. Overbrook understands the needs of laboratories, especially from their outset. With access and expertise across a wide range of instruments, Overbrook is equipped to consult and supply the physical resources your lab requires.

Operational Laboratory

Once your lab is up and running, it needs to stay that way. Preventative maintenance, monitoring, and asset qualification will ensure that it does. Instead of dealing with expensive repairs, costly replacements, and a critical loss of time, contractual services from Overbrook keeps your equipment optimized and in action. Additionally, regular service extends the lifetime of your assets, further impacting your bottom line.

Laboratory Expansion

At some point in a successful venture, expansion will be inevitable. Relocating your laboratory to a newer or bigger facility is a significant task. There are countless obstacles, challenges, and considerations in a relocation. Knowing what to calculate for, what to expect, and how to mitigate risk is invaluable. The project managers at Overbrook are well versed and experienced in laboratory relocation. They coordinate with all stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition.

Laboratory Maturity

As you grow, creating synergistic production from your current resources is crucial. Spending time and effort on routine maintenance, qualification, monitoring, and repair makes it difficult to capitalize on new opportunities. With managed maintenance from Overbrook, these responsibilities are covered, creating more time for your laboratory to focus on its goals.

Laboratory Closure

When your operation comes to an end, there are many objectives. One is determining what to do you with your laboratory’s assets. Overbrook is well-equipped to assist in the divestment of the lab’s instrumentation and assets.  Repurposing this inventory is an essential step in capturing the value of the investment you made in each asset. Laboratory operations in any stage can leverage the experience and expertise of Overbrook  .
