The Life Sciences industry is facing many challenges and intense competition in today's economy. Long development cycles, increased complexity, and stringent regulations are adding pressures and raising the costs of research and development and causing delays in time to market.
To address these issues, successful organizations must find new ways to improve collaboration, accelerate time to discovery and time to market, and integrate their specialized applications in order to reduce their costs.
Microsoft partner, Accelrys, offers Pipeline Pilot, a solution that integrates with Microsoft SharePoint to help you face the challenges of today's market.
Increase collaboration and connectivity
Scientifically-enabled SharePoint allows your employees to collaborate across geographic regions, in real time, and interact directly with scientific data. This allows them to analyze and mine data, revealing the key insights that support effective decision-making which reduces your overall costs and improves efficiencies.
Improve information retrieval
Complementing SharePoint enterprise search with scientific awareness so that chemical and biological queries can be performed adds a new dimension to your enterprise search and provides the ability for your scientists to retrieve critical information to support ongoing investigations.
Simplify the user experience
Information workers typically face the need to access disparate data sources and work with a diverse range of scientific applications. Getting access to data and aggregating it into a usable form represents a major challenge. Moreover, the diverse software applications needed to analyze the data often have different user interfaces, and may even run on multiple operating systems. The combination of SharePoint and Pipeline Pilot provides a single, and familiar, point of entry for your users to access the data and applications they need.
Improve IT efficiency
The combination of Microsoft SharePoint and Pipeline Pilot allows your IT organization to streamline processes, reduce the number of software applications that need to be supported, and provide improved overall data access to employees within your organization. This allows your IT organization to reduce maintenance and management costs, while providing employees with a rich and dynamic application environment that fully leverages their investments in SharePoint.
