Biological Specimen Inventory

We think extremely highly of BSI. It is an extremely robust, secure, and customizable system. IMS has an excellent support and development team, and their release process is professional and reliable.

BSI provides the necessary tools to inventory, track and manage biological specimens while tailoring to your lab’s distinct needs. Their ability to provide immediate support and willingness to aid in development of novel workflows makes their exceptional customer service unmatched.

I have used BSI since it was first introduced and have always found it to be a very efficient means of tracking a large number of samples received, processed and distributed. It also has excellent reporting capabilities. The support staff has been universally helpful in resolving any questions and in incorporating requests for enhancements.

BSI is a very sophisticated software package that allows organizations to manage and maintain biological specimens. Our experience with BSI has been extremely positive as the software package has evolved through time.

Looking at the inventory systems that are out there, I have to say that none of the systems I have seen hold a candle to the BSI. They have a data management system flexible enough to allow us to evolve, but rigid enough to follow for the day-to-day processes.

Discrepancy tracking in BSI allows us to commit vials to inventory while obtaining resolution on errors. It also allows us to report on trends by site or study to promote continuous improvement in data flow.

Repository Director, SeraCare Life Sciences

I have worked with BSI at my previous position and absolutely love it. BSI is capable of so much more than simple sample management. We were able to build templates for complex workflows from extraction to NGS library prep. And they have great support staff.

We made the move to BSI now a decade (or more?) ago and it is SUCH a relief to know that any and all questions about our collections can be answered in the main with the click of a keyboard.
