Total Control
Our proprietary Intelligent Specimen Inventory Storage System (ISISS®) software tracks your samples from the moment they arrive in our care, giving you complete visibility and control of your sample information—online, 24/7.
Focus on Control:
- Online sample access—Access your sample inventory via the web from your office, hotel, or from your cellular device. Anywhere. Anytime.
- Reports on demand—Customize your team’s access to the system according to individual and depth of information. Run reports that show as much or as little information as you need at that moment.
- Sample location information—Pinpoint the exact location of your samples by room, storage unit, shelf and position—and shipping status while in transit. At any moment, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your samples are secure.
- Easy sample retrieval—With BioStorage Technologies, communicate your sample request via ISISS or phone. Your samples will be retrieved and shipped out within 24 hours of your request. It’s that easy.

Reduced Cost
Whether you choose to outsource or in-source our services, you’ll realize significant cost savings in a number of ways.
Focus on Cost:
- Eliminate redundancies in inventory—By placing your samples at one location, and using our ISISS software, you capture an overall picture of your samples. You’ll have the ability to rationalize and eliminate redundancies in your inventory, reducing your storage fees.
- Reallocate overhead—By outsourcing your sample storage and management to BioStorage Technologies, you can reallocate your overhead, and in most cases reduce costs.
- Minimize risk—By trusting your inventory to the company that pioneered Good Storage Practices (GSP), you minimize the risk involved with the upkeep of an internal biorepository or less skilled vendors.
- Focus on your core competency—When you outsource all or part of your sample management, it allows you and your staff to focus on core competencies and strategies that will build profits.

Precision Cold Chain Logistics
Precision cold chain logistics are at the heart of what we do. We believe that the same science applied to the research and development of pharmaceuticals should be applied to all aspects of sample storage, including the handling and shipping of samples.
Focus on Cold Chain Logistics:
- Sample protection and compliance—From the moment they arrive at our facility, we maintain your samples’ unbroken and uninterrupted integrity.
- Continual shipment tracking—While in transit, we continually track your shipment to ensure it arrives on time.
- En route adjustments—If a shipment is delayed for any reason, we take immediate action to re-ice or re-package while en route.
- Logistics management—Our on-site management team can come into your facilities and manage logistics so you don’t have to—from packaging to shipping to tracking your package to its final destination.
