Unity SmartCapture Asset Utilization Monitoring delivers significant benefits, including the ability to reduce unnecessary capital expenditures and laboratory downtime. This solution allows laboratories to match actual instrument usage to optimize service levels and adjust the schedule of planned services (e.g. preventive maintenance, operational qualification). In addition, the data can be leveraged to balance workloads and reduce downtime risk for nearly every instrument in the laboratory.

“SmartCapture enables laboratories to optimize their investments and make more informed decisions regarding future capital expenditures,” said Rodney Smith, president, Unity Lab Services. “This comprehensive solution reinforces our commitment to deliver premier service, and provides researchers with the support they need to maximize their uptime to focus on science and drive innovation.
