Long Term

Organization/Business Function Background

The Analytical Development (AD) and Quality Control (QC) laboratories play a critical role in ensuring the integrity and quality of products within our organization. To enhance our chromatography systems, we are implementing Empower software for comprehensive data acquisition, processing, and reporting. Empower simplifies the management o\f chromatography test results, facilitating accurate and efficient analysis.

Caducee serves as the operating system that integrates Empower, providing a robust platform for laboratory data management. As part of our ongoing efforts to establish a state-of-the-art laboratory at our Waltham facility, we are building infrastructure that connects lab computers to Empower via lace boxes interfacing with Caducee.
