Case Study: Bayer Diagnostics increases testing productivity with CGI's custom TDMS solution

Bayer Diagnostics boosts testing productivity 25% with CGI

Bayer Diagnostics faced a significant challenge with its inefficient and outdated VAX-based test data management process, which had become a major bottleneck. This legacy system required cumbersome manual workarounds and data entry, consuming too much of its quality control team's time and increasing operational risks. To address this, Bayer hired CGI to custom-develop a new software system that would automate testing processes and improve data accessibility.

CGI designed and implemented a custom web-based Test Data Management System (TDMS) using technologies including Oracle and Microsoft servers. The solution dramatically improved performance, reducing data analysis calculation times from 30 seconds to under 5. As a result, Bayer Diagnostics increased its testing productivity by 25% and reduced associated costs by 30%. CGI also provided mentoring and long-term maintenance, which solidified a lasting partnership and ensured continued productivity gains.
