Cambridge and Boston labs run on instruments, data and deadlines. We keep all three moving.
Lab Meets Office
Life sciences IT is two environments pretending to be one. Office side: laptops, Microsoft 365, identity, conference rooms. Lab side: sequencers, plate readers, LC-MS workstations and control PCs running software that was validated years ago and cannot be casually patched.
We segment those worlds properly - isolated VLANs for instrument control, controlled data paths off the bench, and documented exceptions where a vendor requires an older OS. Nothing gets "upgraded for hygiene" and quietly breaks a run.
Data and Compliance
Research data is the asset. We build backup and retention that accounts for large instrument datasets, verify restores rather than assuming them, and keep chain-of-custody documentation you can hand to an auditor or a partner's security team.
We're comfortable working alongside GxP, HIPAA and sponsor security requirements: access reviews, change logs, MFA everywhere, endpoint encryption, and evidence collected as we go rather than reassembled in a panic before a diligence request.
Growth Stage Reality
Biotech headcount doesn't grow linearly. You close a round and hire twenty people in six weeks, or you consolidate and hold flat for a year. A fixed per-seat contract punishes both directions.
Our usage-based model flexes with you, and our laptop provisioning service means new scientists get a configured, encrypted, enrolled machine on day one - shipped anywhere, including to a CRO or a remote bioinformatics hire.
