The costs by then have already been paid. Check out Sapio' slatest article on the early warning signs is a practical read for any lab operations leader who recognises the pattern.

The future of screening is smaller, faster, and more connected.
Acoustic liquid handling has already transformed assay preparation through precise, low-volume transfer. Now, acoustic-compatible sample tubes are extending those benefits across the entire workflow.
Our latest tech note explores how acoustic tube-based systems can support next-generation screening by helping labs:
• Improve sample integrity
• Reduce compound consumption
• Eliminate unnecessary handling steps
• Increase flexibility in library management
• Build scalable, automation-ready workflows
Discover how acoustic sample management is helping laboratories optimize efficiency and data quality simultaneously.

Most sample management platforms were built to track inventory. The question worth asking is whether yours can answer: what happened to this sample, who touched it, what derived from it, and what science depended on it?

Transitioning from manual freezers to automated cold storage systems is an opportunity to elevate how teams manage and protect valuable samples. Beyond the technology itself, success comes from empowering people with the mindset, tools, and leadership support needed to work confidently in a more automated environment.
These five strategies help accelerate adoption, reinforce positive behaviors, and maximize the return on your automated cold storage investment:
1️⃣ Deliver clear, consistent, and purposeful communication
2️⃣ Provide targeted, ongoing training that builds confidence
3️⃣ Recognize and reinforce behaviors that drive success
4️⃣ Lead by example with visible senior leadership engagement
5️⃣ Put people at the center of automation success
