Turning specifically to LabLogic ’ s UK branch , Richard details the production services it provides . “ Essentially , we offer
hardware and software that measure radioactivity in different types of samples for various application areas , but primarily in pharmaceutical research and nuclear medicine . Approximately 50 percent of our business is software solutions that manage the process , instruments , and machinery and perform various functions that traditionally people needed to do with scientific data , to automate processes and analysis to improve efficiency and reduce opportunities for the introduction of errors . We also deliver a range of consumables and accessories associated with the fields we operate within . Given that these are highly regulated environments , we provide extensive service and support , including training and aftercare , and ensure that our instrumentation has the annual qualifications required to perform to the agreed standards .
