LabVantage Solutions Signs Co-marketing Agreement with OmniVizT for Improved Decision Support
Boston, MA, August 5, 2002. LabVantage Sapphire™ Informatics to integrate with the OmniViz suite of software tools for streamlined decision support in genomics, proteomics, combinatorial chemistry and high throughput screening

LabVantage Solutions, Inc., a leading provider of Discovery Lifecycle LIMS and Enterprise LIMS solutions, and OmniViz, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Battelle Memorial Institute, a leader in information visualization and data mining solution technologies for life and chemical sciences, today announced a marketing agreement and the successful integration of their products at the Drug Discovery Technology 2002 conference. This partnership is expected to help world-class research organizations in their efforts to enhance operational and research efficiencies by utilizing the OmniVizT decision analytics software to access mission critical data stored in LabVantage Sapphire™ Informatics. Leveraging OmniViz software tools, LabVantage customers will gain one of the industry's most comprehensive and scalable solutions for rapidly accessing, analyzing and visualizing data.

OmniViz's strength is in allowing the user to analyze text documents and numerical, categorical, and genomic sequence data in an integrated manner. OmniViz reveals previously unknown relationships without the need for prior knowledge. Other data mining tools simply provide a way to test previously held hypotheses. These tools often miss the truly significant discoveries embedded in large databases. "Researchers and scientists in bioinformatics and cheminformatics will now be able to quickly access the dynamic data within LabVantage Sapphire™ Informatics, analyze the information in OmniViz and return those results back into Sapphire™," said Jeff Saffer, acting president, of OmniViz, Inc. "This will enable users to discover the unexpected and rapidly make more informed decisions about their information, which will further reduce discovery and development costs."

"The strength of Sapphire™ is in its ability to meet the most demanding data management and analysis requirements," said Scott Deutsch, vice president global marketing, LabVantage Solutions. "LabVantage customers are always looking for better ways to gain analytical insight into their vast array of scientific data. They will be impressed with the visualization and data mining capabilities available in OmniViz."
