The end-to-end business journey.

From intake to authorised completion, with evidence at each decision.

01

Register the controlled item

Establish the scope of biobank specimen inventories, capture the required records and assign the accountable team.

02

Link custody and supporting evidence

Coordinate consent restrictions and custody records with linked evidence and visible outstanding actions.

03

Review release conditions

Governance and control

  • Role permissions reflect the agreed responsibilities and restricted record access.
  • Required information and evidence are checked before the relevant decision or handover.
  • Exceptions have a named owner, recorded reason and an authorised resolution.
  • Approved changes retain their previous values, accountable decisions and linked evidence.
  • Integration mappings, business rules and acceptance criteria are reviewed with the customer.

Interface scope, data mapping and testing are agreed for each engagement.

Implementation requirements
Confirm the operating boundaries for biobank specimen inventories, responsible roles, review authority, record retention, interface mappings and acceptance scenarios.

Mobile and tablet access

Authorised users can review biobank specimen inventories, supporting records and assigned actions through mobile and tablet access. The relevant tasks and permissions are agreed for the deployment.

Access approved workflows through the Dalfin mobile app. Device tasks and permissions are confirmed for the deployment.

AI extensions

Core workflows and approval rules are defined with your business owners. Operational AI can be assessed separately against a specific business outcome and review requirements.

AI extensions are scoped around the required data, business outcome and review controls.

Engineered with Genesis.

Structured application engineering

Connect requirements, roles, records, workflows and interfaces through the agreed Genesis engineering process.

Controlled changes

Review dependency impact and validation requirements. Context Memory supports governed changes and accepted application revisions.

Deployment and support

Agree customer cloud or on-premises requirements, device access, implementation acceptance and ongoing engineering support.

An example operating scenario

See the process, its exception and the evidence.

Start with biobank specimen inventories and follow the record through the ‘Link custody and supporting evidence’ stage. Introduce a missing item or operating exception, record the authorised resolution and inspect the final handover, evidence and history.

What to review

  • A saved end-to-end transaction
  • An exception and its authorised resolution
  • Different operator, approver and reviewer permissions
  • Final records, history and the relevant report

Questions before implementation.

What can we review in a tailored demonstration?

Review a representative traceability record, its workflow stages, accountable roles, an exception and the resulting operational report. Bring the business process and existing system requirements that matter to your organisation.

How is the solution adapted to our organisation?

The operating scope covers your records, role permissions, review authority, business rules and integration boundaries. These requirements are agreed with the responsible business owners.

How does the solution connect with existing systems?

Connection design defines interfaces, data ownership, mapping, authentication and exception handling. The agreed implementation includes validation against the selected systems and workflows.

How are subsequent changes controlled?

The agreed engineering approach covers review of change impact, bounded implementation, validation and accepted revisions. Discuss the relevant Genesis Context Memory and support requirements during solution scoping.
