“The easy-to-use C.WASH software and its intuitive design gave us a competitive advantage over the competitors in the field of plate washers and liquid dispensers. Many of our customers stated that besides the high quality of the instrument their decision to purchase C.WASH has been significantly influenced by the software.”

Julia Steinert, C.WASH Product Owner, Cytena

“It was our pleasure to work with BioSistemika. We really liked working with them in a highly integrated product development process. The challenging project required a steep learning curve for us all and time to adjust. However, with BioSistemika’s team, we were able to find the best compromises to achieve a successful modus operandi and reach the defined goals. In addition, we appreciate their professionality, flexibility, adaptivity to changes of plans, and capability of being very helpful, even in the more difficult moments.”

Maria Ricci, Data Analyst and Development Engineer, Spindiag GmbH

“Biosistemika has proven to be a valued partner in the development of innovative, long term and challenging project. The Biosistemika’s team covered a critical role in the project providing great support during the major technical decisions as well as discussions and suggestions about the best software approaches throughout the project. Frequent meetings and quick discussions during the software development allowed a continuous alignment to the new user needs raised during the project updates.”

Stefano Ceschia, Research and Development Manager, Alifax

LifeTaq-Analytics GmbH has been collaborating with BioSistemika for more than two years working closely together on the project to construct and program an automated 3D cell cultivation robot. We were able to enhance the prototype of the robot by introducing BioSistemika’s software. We really appreciate the constructive work and the relaxing atmosphere during the project and look forward to even closer cooperation in the near future.

Thank you for your trust and support in all matters.

Manfred Taschner, CEO, LifeTaq Analytics GmbH

 Our development process and lifecycle

Software requirements specifications

Software Requirements Specification (SRS) contains very detailed information and descriptions of how the software system will meet user requirements. We prepare it in tight collaboration with the client, to establish a mutual understanding of all the details related to the wanted behavior of the software system. The document normally includes functional requirements specification (related to features from a user point-of-view), as well as non-functional requirements specification (technical requirements), which are other technical qualities that the system must exhibit, such as durability, security, reliability, uptime, etc.

Depends of the project, this phase can include workshop/s, meetings, as well as usability tests, preparation of mockups, and prototypes. Detailed SRS document is excellent basis for system design, development project costs, and the project timeline.

Software design specifications

The Software design specifications contain detailed information on how the software will achieve its intended use. This is achieved by specifying in detail the design of the software system. The SDS documents cover both functional specifications (individual screens, features, functions, and user flows within the software), as well as non-functional specifications (user interface elements, technical architecture of the software system, and similar).

We usually write this documents in form of Epics and use them as the blueprint of how the software will be built. We can prepare additional documents for you, such as Risk Assessment and Technical Decisions Document.

UX/UI Design

We pay a lot of attention to UX design, since it can present a significant competitive advantage of device. Our team of designers are dedicated to deliver an intuitive user interface of the software.

They understand product specifications, develop wireframes and prototypes around your needs, find creative ways to solve UX problems (e.g. usability, findability) and communicate design ideas and prototypes to developers.

They join their UX expertise with UI knowledge to implement attractive designs that enable faster user adoption by the end-users.

Algorithm development

Our experienced algorithm developers with life sciences domain knowledge can support you in software algorithm development, testing and validation to ensure that the algorithm is correct, efficient, and meets the desired performance criteria. We can also integrate algorithm into a software application, thus enabling you to offer a complete solution to your customers.

Testing & QA

Our QA and testing  teams work closely with development team to ensure that software is reliable, stable, and performs as expected. We perform manual and automated testing that covers functional testing, performance testing, security testing and others. The software QA and testing process also involves creating test cases, test plans, and test scripts to ensure comprehensive testing of the software.

Maintenance & support

Effective software maintenance is essential for ensuring that software applications continue to function correctly and meet the changing needs of users. BioSistemika‘s maintenance services include activities such as bug fixing, performance optimization, feature enhancements, as well as ensuring compatibility with new operating systems and hardware. Our goal is keeping your software applications up-to-date and running smoothly.

Software architecture consulting

We offer software architecture consulting service, where our senior software architects help you design software applications that are robust, scalable, and maintainable.
