Lab GPSβ’ is the first fully cloud-based offering from Data Innovations, built to improve uptime with lab connectivity monitoring, control, and notifications. Offered to all Instrument Managerβ’ connectivity customers, Lab GPS brings the power of our industry-leading vendor-neutral solution outside the four walls of the lab and enables users to monitor, stop, start, and resolve connection issues even when they are off-site. Connectivity failure and downtime cause inefficiency in the lab and have a significant impact on patient care and turn-around time. Recovery from these downtimes stress the lab further. The longer systems remain disconnected or down, the longer the recovery time will be. Notifications in Lab GPSβ’ allow users to be notified via visual notification in the web-app when a connection is disrupted or via email if they are off-site. Users can then securely sign into the web-app using single-sign on to stop and start the downed connection, which can resolve connectivity issues and reduce downtime. Lab GPSβ’ is built to improve business continuity by increasing uptime and reducing recovery time. Our purpose, as always, is to help your lab focus on what matters most - improving patient care.
