ART Laboratory Design & Planning
Build or upgrade an IVF, andrology, or endocrine laboratory with confidence. The coLABorative supports new builds, remodels, and modernization projects with a practical, lab-first approach that keeps performance, compliance, and day-one usability at the center of every decision.
This service can include early-stage planning (scope definition, workflow and adjacencies, equipment footprinting), vendor and equipment selection support, construction coordination, and commissioning oversight. We help align layout and infrastructure with real laboratory workflows, utilities, and environmental requirements, while keeping an eye on timelines, permitting, and the details that typically derail lab launches.
As your lab nears completion, we support commissioning and readiness activities including burn-in phases, QC planning, validation-minded testing, and documentation alignment. The goal is simple: a high-performance lab that is operationally ready, inspection-ready, and designed to support consistent clinical outcomes.
What this can cover
- New lab builds and major expansions
- Remodels and infrastructure upgrades
- Equipment selection and modernization planning
- Burn-in, QC protocols, and launch testing support
- Regulatory compliance alignment and facility registration support
The CoLABorative management team includes Dara Berger, PhD, MPH, MS; Charlene Alouf, PhD, HCLD, TS; Gerry Celia, MBA, PhD, HCLD, CC; and Liesl Nel-Themaat, PhD, HCLD, MBA.
