Lab Orchestration Blueprint #1 is all about digital connectivity with manual physical connectivity 💪🦾 Not every lab is ready to make the leap into a fully automated system, but that doesn't mean that it's not possible to work in an orchestrated way with the lab you have.
Lab Orchestration Blueprint #1 Pros and Cons ⚖️
Pros
🟢 Devices and workstations are interconnected by the people who help tie them together
🟢 Total data capture is achieved digitally, because #GreenButtonGo acts as the conductor, passing data through the system and queueing up the next activity for equipment and people
🟢 Orchestration benefits are unlocked through #GreenButtonGo, like improved efficiency, real-time reporting, contextualized troubleshooting, and connectivity with systems like LIMS
Cons
🔴 "Hurry up and wait" effect for the scientists who need to move equipment between stations
🔴 Productivity may not extend beyond traditional work hours
🔴 Human variability is still part of the system
#LabOrchestration is all about seeing the lab as a complex, multifaceted data stream, and giving humans a place to conduct all parts of it. It doesn't take a 100% fully automated install to achieve.
