Identify and understand bottlenecks

The crucial first step in lab workflow optimization is understanding the specific challenges that the lab faces. navify Analytics is a critical tool for gaining visibility and insights into workflow bottlenecks. By analyzing trends and identifying peak volumes, labs can pinpoint when and where these bottlenecks occur. This understanding is the first step in addressing workflow inefficiencies and ensuring more streamlined operations.

navify Analytics enables us to measure the benefits of fact- and statistics-based decision making rather than personal subjectivities or observations.

Implement workflow modifications

Once bottlenecks are identified, the next step is to implement modifications to the workflow. This is where navify Lab Operations comes into play, which can optimize the sample flow through its workflow engine. Labs can adjust sample priorities based on test requirements, ensuring that urgent samples are processed quickly. For example, a troponin test, which has higher priority, can be upgraded to urgent status within the system, ensuring faster processing.

Monitor and adjust in real-time

To manage bottlenecks in real-time, navify Monitoring provides a valuable solution, offering a real-time dashboard that displays information and alerts about samples and data flow. Labs can configure widgets to track key performance indicators (KPIs) such as turnaround times. With visual alerts, staff can proactively intervene to prevent delays, ensuring that samples are processed promptly.

With navify Lab Operations, navify Analytics and navify Monitoring we now have a command center that allows real-time visibility of our entire operation.
