Company’s Challenge

An international agri food company specialized in infant nutrition is looking for a solution to overcome the multi-repository search on scientific data.

The senior scientist who is also the head of the bioinformatics platform express her need as followed:

“I would like to spend less time retrieving and visualizing information from our multiple siloed repositories.I want to be sure that I do not miss any essential data. I need to search on terabytes of data, both documents and scientific data”.

Solution

Design, build and initial data loading in Inquiro performed in 2 month
4 data sources were connected (filesystem, ELN, internal repositories)
3 public ontologies (Genomes, Human Disease, Organism) and 2 private dictionaries (project codes and bacterial strains) were used for the automatic annotation process

Results

Inquiro interface recognized as an easy to use interface and received 4 stars during the evaluation

Search capabilities (filtering, advanced search) and Document access management recognized as a key adoption triggers

360 degree view of the data across multiple silos and data organizations, make searches 5 to 10 times faster

Access rights are managed at the document level

Unexpected outcome: discrepancy of internal dictionaries managed through inquiro synonyms management capabilities

Client Testimonial
