Welcome to the Lab Maturity Assessment In the ever-evolving world of scientific research and development, the maturity of your laboratory is a key factor in achieving excellence. Recognizing this, we have created a targeted questionnaire to help you evaluate and potentially enhance your lab's capabilities. Our Lab Maturity Assessment is designed to provide you with an insightful analysis of your laboratory's current state. By responding to just 8 specific questions, you will obtain a clearer picture of your lab's operational efficiency, technological sophistication, and readiness to confront both present and future challenges. Once you complete the questionnaire, you will receive a personalized email assessment. This comprehensive report with this assessment will not only pinpoint your lab's maturity level, but will also show how your maturity compares to others. It will offer important insights and suggest possible areas for growth. Embark on your path to laboratory excellence today!

1. Which of the following best characterizes the primary focus area of your organization? * 1. R&D 2. Quality Control 3. Process Development/Scale-up 4. Clinical 5. Other Please select the option that most closely aligns with your main objectives. If your primary focus is not listed, select 'Other' and please provide a brief description.
Other "Do not leave this field blank." *
2. How would you rate the accessibility, capture, and transfer of data in your lab? * 1. Manual data capture and transfer, with some data being impossible to find or access.2. Siloed digital data capture and transfer, making it difficult to access or find data.3. Pockets of automated data capture and transfer, with inconsistent ability to access or find data.4. Most data capture and transfer is automated; data is generally accessible and findable.5. Fully automated data capture and transfer, enabling seamless data search and access. Please consider ease of access, efficiency of data capture, and the smoothness of data transfer in your rating (1 being very difficult and manual, 5 being seamless and transparent, with 2-4 representing varying degrees of efficiency and automation).
3. Please indicate whether the following statement is True or False as it pertains to your lab: "Our laboratory has a defined data governance strategy that facilitates data interoperability, standardization, and use." * TrueFalse
4. How would you rate the integration and automation of instruments and systems in your lab? * 1. Siloed, disconnected instruments and systems, extensive paper-based processes, and little to no automation.2. Islands of integration, moderate paper-based processes, and rudimentary automation.3. Most instruments/systems integrated to some degree, minimal paper-based processes, and increasing use of automation.4. Some processes have end-to-end integration; automation is widely used.5. Fully integrated instruments and systems from end-to-end; automation is standardized and pervasive. (1 being isolated, siloed instruments and systems with little to no automation, and 5 being fully integrated instruments and systems, with automation replacing tedious, repetitive actions).
5. Please indicate whether the following statement is True or False as it pertains to your lab: "We are actively incorporating Advanced Analytics, AI, and Generative AI into our standard working processes." * TrueFalse
6. How would you rate the harmonization and standardization of business/lab method processes in your lab? * 1. Processes are not captured or documented in SOPs; lab methods vary widely between sites and groups.2. Processes and methods are similar across sites and groups, but SOPs are site/function specific with many unique features.3. Global operating procedures for processes and methods exist but may contain many exceptions.4. Global operating procedures for processes and methods are generally followed with few exceptions.5. Processes and methods across sites/functions are fully aligned with global processes and standards. (1 being processes that are not optimized and have many unique rules and exceptions, and 5 being fully optimized processes that align with global standards).
7. Please indicate whether the following statement is True or False as it pertains to your lab: "Our standard business and workflow processes allow lab resources to spend the majority of their time on core value-add activities, such as method development" * TrueFalse
8. What is the major hurdle to your efforts in successful lab transformation? * 1. Complexity: Challenges related to the intricate nature of lab transformation. 2. Cost: Financial constraints or budgetary issues. 3. Unclear Business Value: Difficulty in understanding or demonstrating the benefits of lab transformation. 4. Resistance to Change: Reluctance among staff or management to adopt new processes or technologies. 5. Regulatory Concerns: Issues related to compliance with laws and regulations. 6. Other: Please specify if there are different hurdles not listed above.
