Core Informatics, LLC develops and distributes laboratory informatics software solutions. The company also offers software as a service (SaaS) hosting of its products.

History

In March 2017, Thermo Fisher Scientific acquired Core Informatics for $94 million, which was reportedly assigned to Thermo's Analytical Instruments division.[1] As of January 2019, the Core Informatics web page was still operating independently as "part of Thermo Fisher Scientific."

Technology and products

Core ELN, LIMS, and SDMS

Core ELN is an electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) that "enables lab managers and scientists to seamlessly share data and results organization-wide in an environment that is 21CFR11 compliant."[2] The ELN is available in a biology and chemistry edition.

Core LIMS is a laboratory information management system (LIMS) that features "flexible component-based architecture provides organizations with the opportunity to purchase only the software that is required to support their existing data management needs."[3]

Core SDMS is a scientific data management system (SDMS) that "provides an automated data capture framework for the integration of the Thermo Fisher Platform for Science Software with laboratory instruments and workflows."[4] The SDMS has features such as instrument integration, automated data management, software connectivity, audit trail, remote file capture, and configurable security roles.[4]

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.

"Thermo Fisher acquired Core Informatics in early March for a total of $94 million, net of cash acquired. The informatics firm, which has been offering cloud-based platforms for scientific management, is now part of Thermo's Analytical Instruments segment. Last year, Core Informatics launched a validated version of its Platform-for-Science infrastructure for regulated laboratories in the biopharmaceutical industry and clinical genomics. Thermo said in the filing that Core Informatics had approximately $10 million in revenues in 2016 and that the purchase price exceeded the fair market value of the identifiable net assets, so it allocated $63 million of the price to goodwill."
