From Manual to Managed:
Lab Workflows That Scale

A framework for diagnosing where your lab's workflows break
down and the actions you can take to resolve them.

April 14th @ 8AM PT

30 Minutes

SOPs in one folder. Sample data in a spreadsheet. Assay results in an ELN. Handoffs over email. The workflow technically exists, but it's scattered across systems that don't talk to each other.

The consequences build quietly: experiments get repeated because results can't be found. Audit prep takes weeks instead of hours. New hires spend months learning unwritten processes that should be encoded in the system.

These aren't process problems. They're infrastructure problems. And they don't resolve by adding another spreadsheet or hiring another data manager. This session is about understanding the structural patterns behind these breakdowns and what to do about them.

What you'll learn:

  • The 3 bottlenecks that keep labs stuck
    Why process fragmentation, traceability gaps, and system rigidity persist, even in well-run labs and how they compound over time.

  • A workflow maturity model to score your lab
    A diagnostic framework for evaluating where your lab stands today- from ad hoc tracking to structured, adaptive operations. Most labs land at Level 2 or 3. The gap between 3 and 4 is where the highest leverage lives.

  • Principles for choosing the right approach
    A vendor-neutral criteria for evaluating any workflow solution- whether you're building internally, buying software, or deciding whether your current tools can scale.
