More and more companies are working with external partners, either for routine day-to-day tasks or for the more-exotic specialist tasks. Some companies have taken this to the logical extreme and no longer have internal labs, instead outsourcing everything from synthesis to testing.

In both cases in order to coordinate the activities and advance the project the results need to be available to the project leaders for decision making, not a trivial task when different CROs return reports and data via email or shared drives at different times and in different formats. The Arxspan ELN platform addresses these challenges with a real-time overview of ongoing projects and experiments and a centralized repository for all your research activities, ensuring harmonization of documentation and result entry.
