The gap between the equipment you own and the standard you are held to.

How it runs

Consulting — from standard to evidence

Why adopt it

You will recognise yourself here, or you will not.

  • You have an accreditation assessment coming and no evidence trail

  • You are about to build or refurbish a laboratory and the plan was drawn by an architect without laboratory input

  • You are a manufacturer who needs Rwanda FDA registration and has no local route

  • Your biosafety cabinets have never been certified, or you cannot find the certificate

  • You are writing a tender and need specifications that will actually get you what you want

  • You are designing a screening programme that touches minors or stigma-sensitive conditions

The process, with timing

  1. 011 meeting, no charge

    Scoping conversation

    What standard you are being held to, and where you think the gaps are.

  2. 021–3 days on site

    Gap assessment or audit

    On-site assessment against the standard, with findings ranked by risk.

  3. 031–2 weeks

    Costed plan

    What to fix, in what order, with effort and cost against each item.

  4. 04Per engagement

    Delivery

    Documentation, validation, mapping, certification or design work as scoped.

  5. 05Before assessment

    Verification

    Internal audit or mock assessment before the real one.

  6. 06Annual

    Recurring items

    Biosafety certification, temperature mapping and calibration recur on an interval — moved onto a schedule.

Proof, not promises — and the questions we actually get asked.

A procurement officer does not debug a claim, they form an impression. So every proof point here is one you can verify.

  • No. Consulting is sold separately and we support laboratories running other suppliers' instruments.

  • No, and be careful of anyone who says otherwise. Accreditation depends on sustained management commitment. We can guarantee an honest gap assessment and a realistic plan.

  • We are here next month, and the month after. And we can execute the remediation, not just describe it.

What stands behind every configuration

  • Engineer profiles — names, photographs, manufacturer certifications

  • Manufacturer authorisation letters, published as documents

  • Rwanda FDA registration certificates for every product we supply

Published case studies follow as soon as customers approve them — we would rather show this than an empty "coming soon".
