How Our Laboratory Design Services Work:

Provide site acquisition target criteria based upon your lab’s test menu, throughput, and growth plans.
Review floor plans for suitability prior to you signing a lease.
Create the clinical laboratory layout design according to lean efficiency practices to ensure optimal placement of equipment, refrigerators, freezers, centrifuges, hand and eye-wash stations, benches, tables, sinks, auxiliary equipment, etc.
Offer guidance on the proper electrical, plumbing, interface, HVAC, and ventilation hood placement to ensure that your laboratory design complies with manufacturer guidelines and all local, State, and Federal ordinances.

Consistent support with check-in calls, quick response time to emailed questions, and a great team of people who know what they are doing.
