Agilent Introduces CrossLab Connect Services for Lab-wide Asset Monitoring

Enhanced digital strategy increases lab efficiencies and productivity

SANTA CLARA, Calif--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) announced today an extension to its digital lab capabilities with Agilent CrossLab Asset Monitoring, an advanced service for laboratories seeking increased visibility and control over operations.

Today organizations struggle optimizing laboratory operation and asset management. Across large instrument fleets it has been difficult measuring productivity and effective capacity, resulting in unnecessary capital purchases, misallocation of lab space, unmet cost management initiatives, and reduced throughput.

“CrossLab Asset Monitoring is a truly lab-wide application,” said David Heiger, Ph.D., associate vice president of Marketing, Agilent CrossLab Group. “It provides our customers valuable insights to identify and correct workflow bottlenecks and optimize lab resources.”

“Agilent is at the forefront of applying IoT and insight analytics technologies to lab operations with this new service,” Heiger added.
