Client: The client is a large biotechnology company that develops cancer treatment solutions by combining functional genomics and antigen-discovery technology with its proprietary biotechnology capabilities.

Engagement: Tribiosys was engaged by the client to develop a strategy and gather requirements for an application to house biological pathway data. The specific goals of the engagement were to work with champions within the entire client organization who heavily use biological pathway information and their research groups to develop a business case for using biological pathways as a central tool in the client’s business processes, as a knowledge management tool as well as to gather requirements from the users and super-users (the Bioinformatics department). Tribiosys also developed a roadmap for the development and implementation of the proposed solution.

Client: The client is a manufacturer of a proprietary distributed computing hardware technology for accelerating life sciences applications and making them easier to use on compute farms and clusters.

Engagement: To enhance the performance of a number of popular informatics applications (DOCK, SIM4, GOLD) on the customer’s proprietary technology platform. Tribiosys met with the client to understand their technology, define their objectives and install and test the software packages to be parallelized. Using the proprietary technology, a data parallelization architecture and our deep understanding of algorithms in bioinformatics, Tribiosys was able to deliver performance enhancements of up to 10 times on four applications in under 10 weeks.
