We frequently discuss creating and improving assays with customers and prospective customers. 

​

After an initial meeting to chat about concepts and objectives, we exchange NDAs and arrange another meeting to discuss details.

​

Some customers have a very clear idea of what they require. They have prepared Product and Marketing Requirements Documents (PRDs & MRDs) and we spend time running through the importance of each aspect of the required product.

​

At the other end of the spectrum, others only have the germ of an idea, with no 'must haves' or 'would like to haves'.

​

Most lie somewhere in between.

 

There's no 'right' way to approach a project. A 'wrong' way is to change the requirements or withhold information that later becomes critically important. To make sure that the important bases are considered as early as possible, we've created a checklist.

​

Each assay is different and some characteristics will be more important than others, but if you have (at least) considered the requirements on the checklist from the outset - the development project will progress in the right direction.

​

The checklist is free to download. We hope you find it useful and if you are looking for a specialist to help you develop an assay, please get in touch.
