Laboratory performance. Business impact.
Your science.
My experience.
More value.
I’m Clive Higgins. I work with manufacturers of scientific software and the organizations that buy and use it, helping them make better decisions and get more value from laboratory software and AI.

I know the software.
I understand what you need from it.
Over 40+ years in laboratory software and scientific informatics, I’ve seen the decisions from both the vendor and customer sides. That gives me a practical view of how product capabilities, scientific workflows, and commercial priorities fit together.
I bring that perspective to your laboratory: where time is being lost, where investment could work harder, and which changes deserve your attention first.
