Biosearch
Biosearch is a state-of-the-art testing laboratory based in Belfast who work alongside organisations to provide comprehensive and reliable sampling services for the water, food, agriculture and environmental industries. When Biosearch first approached Scaffold, they had over 100 samplers in the field, manually collecting and recording information against each sample on paper. It was decided Scaffold would develop a collector app for iOS and Android that allows Samplers to carry out their jobs using a mobile device. Alongside the app we developed a Laravel based web platform that allows Biosearch to manage samples and jobs submitted via the app. Biosearch and their partner organisations can create jobs and push them out to the relevant collector in advance via the web portal. As part of this project, we were also required to write app data back to an existing LIMS platform, used in the lab for storing sample information and results.
