August 2022: The next phase begins

After two years of initial development, concluding with a three month pilot at five locations across Africa, South America and South East Asia, we are now entering the next phase of the program.  Over the next two years, we will be embarking on a much expanded pilot encompassing sites from a broader set of territories with a more diverse set of requirements.  In parallel, we will continue to implement road-mapped features, taking the system from a viable product to a fully featured, class leading open source LIMS.

The major development themes of the next phase will be connectivity (to medical instruments & analysers, Hospital Information systems and surveillance networks, etc.), configurability (exposing more of the underlying flexibility built into the system at the outset) and functional coverage (including fuller support for other laboratory disciplines, such as haematology, biochemistry and virology, obviating the need to use separate systems for each type of testing).

The goal of any pilot and the prime motivation for site participation is to reach the point where the system can be fully deployed with live data as the primary system in use.  Hence as soon as a pilot site considers the system is fully deployable for its needs, it will be given the opportunity to deploy and will continue to be supported as a live site.  Read more about the pilot program here.
