The Challenge: Breaking Free from Legacy Systems

The client’s genetic testing workflows were constrained by a legacy codebase that created bottlenecks and compliance risks:

  • Slow Turnaround Times (TAT) → Delays in test order, sample management, and reporting.
  • Technical Debt → Aging infrastructure caused recurring production bugs.
  • Scalability Gaps → Inability to integrate with modern sequencing instruments and bioinformatics pipelines.
  • Compliance Burden → Fragmented traceability increased HIPAA audit risks.
  • Usability Issues → Clinicians found legacy dashboards unintuitive, reducing adoption.

The client needed a cloud-native, HIPAA-compliant platform that could streamline workflows, enable interoperability, and prepare for the future of precision medicine.

Sample Management

Migrated to a LIMS-driven architecture, ensuring full traceability and efficiency.

Report Management

Automated QC checks, reporting pipelines, and audit-ready dashboards for clinicians and researchers.

Data Privacy & Security

Embedded data masking and selective visibility (Datavant, Delphix, DataSunrise) to safeguard PHI.

UI/UX for Adoption

Designed intuitive, compliance-ready dashboards that improved clinician and researcher engagement.

Compliance-First Engineering

SOC2 framework built into every module.

Future-Ready Architecture

Introduced microservices, APIs, and automation pipelines for scalability and resilience.
