Life Sciences & Laboratories

Laboratory IT, instruments and compliant data infrastructure.

Environment: Lab bench, instrument & data center
Uptime demand: Continuous instrument runs
Oversight: GxP audit review
Documentation: IQ/OQ/PQ-aligned change records

Overview

Infrastructure that can survive a validation audit

In a GxP environment, the network and storage behind an instrument are as auditable as the instrument itself — an undocumented change can invalidate a study, not just an IT ticket. Uniqcli supports labs and life-sciences organizations with instrument-adjacent IT, validated-environment networking and high-capacity research-data storage, documented from delivery so it holds up under GxP and internal-audit scrutiny.

Where we fit

Instrument-adjacent, audit-ready by default

LIMS-adjacent networking and instrument connectivity have to respect validated-environment change control — we scope installs against your existing IQ/OQ/PQ documentation instead of treating a network drop as a routine IT change, and we hand over the paperwork a validation lead needs to keep the environment in a documented state.

Research data volume from sequencers, imaging systems and high-content screening rarely gets planned for at the scale it actually arrives — we size high-capacity storage to instrument throughput, not a rough estimate, and build in the retention and access controls a data-integrity policy requires.

Instrument and LIMS-adjacent networking scoped to validated-environment requirements
Change control and documentation aligned to IQ/OQ/PQ processes
High-capacity storage sized to sequencer, imaging and screening data rates
Lab endpoint and peripheral fleets, deployed with chain-of-custody records

Questions

Frequently asked

Can a network or storage change be documented against our IQ/OQ/PQ process?

Yes. We format delivery and configuration records to slot into existing validation documentation, so a change doesn't trigger an unplanned revalidation.

Do you size storage against actual instrument data-generation rates?

Yes. Send instrument counts and run frequency and we'll size ingest and archive storage against your real throughput, not a generic capacity estimate.

Can you supply infrastructure for federally funded research grants?

Yes. We source TAA-compliant equipment and document country of origin where a grant or contract requires it.

Does hardware need to be "21 CFR Part 11 compliant"?

No single box is — and a vendor claiming otherwise is skipping the hard part. Part 11 governs electronic records and signatures, and compliance is a property of the validated system: software controls, procedures and training together. Hardware either supports that outcome or gets in its way — storage with audit-trail capacity, access-controlled endpoints, reliable time sources for timestamping. We supply the infrastructure with delivery and configuration documentation formatted so your validation team can qualify it inside the system that actually carries the Part 11 burden.

Our lab handles PHI — what does HIPAA mean for infrastructure buying?

The HIPAA Security Rule obligation sits with your organization as a covered entity or business associate — hardware can't take it on, but the right hardware makes it achievable. Clinical and diagnostic labs typically specify encryption at rest with FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 validated modules, network segmentation between instrument and business networks, and endpoints that support full-disk encryption and audit logging. We source to those specifications and document what shipped, so your risk analysis references real configurations rather than assumptions.

Can we purchase through a cooperative contract or GPO membership?

Yes, when the membership or vehicle is yours. Universities, research institutes and healthcare-affiliated labs commonly buy through cooperative purchasing agreements or group purchasing organizations they belong to, and federally funded programs buy through whatever route their award requires. Uniqcli supports those purchases as an independent reseller: quotes formatted to the agreement's requirements, TAA-designated-country screening and country-of-origin documentation where a federal grant requires it. The contract relationship stays between you and the cooperative; we make the quote fit it.

Can you supply environmental monitoring for freezers, cold rooms and incubators?

Yes. We source networked temperature and humidity sensors, PoE-powered gateways and the alerting infrastructure behind them for ULT freezers, cold rooms, incubators and stability chambers. In GxP settings the purchasing detail that matters is calibration: buyers typically require sensor calibration certificates traceable to NIST, issued by the sensor manufacturer or an accredited lab. We confirm certificate availability per line at quote so the monitoring system can enter service documented, not retrofitted.
