Case Study
OBD accelerates diagnostics and cuts administrative work by 35% with BioIT’s end-to-end system.
The Challenge
Oxford BioDynamics (OBD), a multi-national diagnostics company, aimed to launch a novel diagnostic to improve diagnoses for critically-ill patients by speeding up the time between physician orders and test results. They needed a comprehensive digital system that could be implemented quickly and efficiently with minimal staff involvement.
The Solution
OBD partnered with BioIT Solutions to implement 1Platform4® Diagnostics, an end-to-end system that manages the entire commercial diagnostics lifecycle—from kits and physician orders to patient samples, data analysis, and diagnostic reports. BioIT’s team worked closely with OBD’s CLIA Lab during the product launch, ensuring a smooth rollout. Since the launch, the platform has successfully integrated two new tests and expanded to multiple testing labs.

35%
Reduction in administrative tasks
By automating key workflows and digitizing records, OBD eliminated manual processes, freeing up 35% of their administrative staff’s time to focus on higher-value tasks.
2x
Patients served
With streamlined inventory management and faster access to critical supplies, OBD was able to double the number of patients they served, all without adding extra staff.
50%
Faster Diagnosis
Patients benefit from a 50% faster diagnosis, allowing treatment options to be selected much earlier. This not only improves patient outcomes but also reduces the anxiety of waiting for test results, giving patients and physicians more time to plan and start appropriate care
With 1Platform4® Diagnostics, our staff has an easy-to-use, adaptable system that covers our entire diagnostic process. The BioIT team consistently supports us with quick responses, ensuring we meet our goals.
The Benefits
The implementation of BioIT’s WMS brought transformative benefits to OBD, including:
Patient Benefits
Patients benefit from faster, more accurate diagnoses, leading to earlier and more targeted treatment options. Onsite blood draws with custom diagnostic kits enhance convenience and patient satisfaction.
Physician Benefits
Physicians can electronically place orders and receive instant diagnostic results, streamlining decision-making and improving care speed.
Organizational Benefits
Staff are freed from mundane administrative work and can work on higher value tasks. More patients can be treated and this benefits the hospital, the doctors, and the patients.
