Procurement and instrumentation
Our turn-key solutions cover everything from furniture and instrumentation to chemicals and supplies. We also offer modular, prefabricated, and mobile trailer laboratories for in-field or flexible solutions.
Planning and design
We collaborate closely with you to define project scope and objectives, creating an initial laboratory plan that includes sampling schedules, methods, and health, safety, and environmental (HSE) requirements. Utilizing BIM (Building Information Management) software, we optimize laboratory design for maximum efficiency and future maintenance needs.
Implementation of systems and procedures
Our project teams handle the complete mobilization of your laboratory, including tailored quality and operational manuals, sampling plans, testing procedures, and relevant accreditations. We ensure efficient laboratory operations with a robust Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and provide ongoing support with subject matter experts, administration, and master data reporting.
Start-Up and operational support
We offer expert management for the start-up phase, including equipment validation, additional testing, and training. Throughout your laboratory's operational lifetime, we provide essential services to maintain high service levels and quality standards, from talent acquisition and outsourcing test work to training and wastewater testing.
