How to Use Data to Optimize Lab Operations
In this edition of "An Expert's P.O.V.", Flagship's J.P. Casabar, Sr. Director of Lab Services, discusses the critical role data plays in optimizing lab operations and shares insights on how labs can improve efficiency, reduce waste, and make smarter resourcing decisions. Data-driven decision-making is the backbone of modern research. Yet, when it comes to the operations that support this research, data is often underutilized or overlooked entirely. Instead, labs are left making critical decisions based on vague estimates and guesswork. Should key decisions about spending and resources rely on this kind of uncertainty? No. But how do you begin to streamline operations when you’re not sure what data to track or how to track it? In this post, we’ll explore how your lab can leverage data to improve everything from inventory management to equipment maintenance, ensuring more efficient and cost-effective operations.
