When our laboratory at Meander Medisch Centrum began the transition to a new GLP Systems Track, we found ourselves on the brink of reverting to a manual workflow after nearly a decade of automation. Processing over 4,000 tubes per day by hand wouldn’t just be tedious – it would also increase the risk of errors, create bottlenecks, and add strain to our team. We needed a solution to maintain the speed and accuracy our patients depend on, without requiring additional staff or compromising on quality. From the moment we introduced indexor into our workflow, it was clear that we were working with more than just a tool – we had a partner that truly understood our needs. Below are the key challenges indexor helped us address, insights on its implementation, and the experiences of those directly involved.

Below are the key challenges indexor helped us address, insights on its implementation, and the experiences of those directly involved.
During the transition from our old track to the new GLP Systems Track, our laboratory had to manage samples manually for about five months. To bridge this gap, we adopted indexor as a temporary automation solution. Although we initially worried about adding yet another layer of technology, implementation proved to be remarkably straightforward.
The indexor team delivered concise, hands-on training and was readily available for support. Within just a few weeks, we were fully operational with indexor, maintaining automated processing until our new track was up and running, after which we switched over seamlessly.
“ With indexor, we transformed how we manage samples across multiple workflows. It’s not just about efficiency – it’s about ensuring every sample, from the ER to inpatient collections, is handled accurately and on time. ”
Department Head, Clinical Chemistry
Introducing new technology can feel daunting, especially given the tight timelines of a major transition. However, once our staff witnessed how Indexor reduced repetitive tasks and manual errors while making urgent sample handling more transparent, they quickly embraced the change. Its intuitive interface and robust support were repeatedly mentioned as key factors in its swift acceptance.
“ The adoption on the workfloor was practically seamless. After just a brief training, everyone could see how this would make their day more efficient. ”
Senior Laboratory Technician
Yes, indexor genuinely simplified our workflows – and not only in specialized areas. From check-in to sorting and prioritizing urgent samples, the system’s automation reduced the need for manual intervention at every step. This allowed our team to devote more energy to clinical analysis and patient-focused tasks rather than administrative or logistical duties.
“ Its automated sorting has been a game-changer for us. The difference in workload and peace of mind, cannot be overstated.”
Lead Biomedical Scientist
When confronted with a significant operational challenge – bridging a temporary manual phase while transitioning to a new GLP Systems Track – indexor provided the ideal interim automation solution. By automating check-in, improving sorting, ensuring real-time tracking and prioritizing urgent samples, we were able to manage a high volume of tests without sacrificing accuracy or speed. Indexor’s technology and dedicated support team helped us maintain our commitment to providing rapid, dependable diagnostics for every patient, every time. By refining crucial steps and guaranteeing traceability from start to finish, indexor has raised the bar on what is possible in laboratory automation at Meander Medisch Centrum.
