Consultant for LIMS Evaluation and Recommendation in a Bioprocess Lab (EU) (m/w/d)

Consultant for LIMS Evaluation and Recommendation in a Bioprocess Lab (EU) (M/F/D)

Tasks:

• Clearly define the business, functional, technical, and compliance requirements of the BTRL-DSE.

• Evaluate both SampleManager and IDBS Polar on:

• Functional capabilities aligned with lab workflows
• Total cost of ownership (licensing, implementation, ongoing support)
• Implementation complexity and timelines
• Validation and compliance requirements (GxP, 21 CFR Part 11). The solution will be used for non-GxP projects, but we consider implementing it closely following the GxP requirements (and potentially validating properly)
• IT infrastructure, integration, and ongoing support needs in particular focusing on required human-resources as IT application support

• Provide a detailed recommendation supported by comparative analysis, including close vendor engagement.

• Gather requirements through workshops and interviews with stakeholders
• Assess existing LIMS solutions (Thermo Fisher SampleManager and IDBS Polar) regarding functionality, costs, validation, and risks
• Conduct comparative analysis and prepare an evaluation report
• Develop a recommendation for the best solution, including decision rationale
• Documentation and project based communication with stakeholders

Qualification:

• Experience in evaluating, implementing and managing LIMS systems, ideally in a life sciences environment
• Knowledge of regulatory standards (GxP, 21 CFR Part 11) and validation processes
• Analytical thinking, structured working style, and good communication skills

• Fluent in English; German language skills are a plus

   

• Note: Freelancers must use their own equipment!
