If you run an outreach lab, you are well acquainted with the fact that you need reliable courier services to deliver specimens, samples, and supplies. To be successful, your lab outreach courier program needs the four C’s: collection, communication, consistency, and competence.

MCE developed an Application Programming Interface (API) for two unrelated systems to exchange information for specimen tracking or courier management. Customers who wish to automate some facets of MCE may use our APIs to accomplish various tasks.

If supplies are flying in and out of your lab with no accountability, you are losing money. You may be buying more than you need, providing customers with excessive supplies, losing deliveries, or dealing with other inefficiencies.

There are many outreach labs regularly losing specimens and consider it a normal by-product of their business. It’s not that they want to lose specimens, but in the hectic day-to-day of business, it somehow just becomes acceptable.

A feature in MCE known as “Streamlining” allows labs to easily track specimen transfers between couriers or multiple locations. . By integrating transfer tracking, Streamlining makes MCE a more robust tool for accurately tracking a specimen through each step of the journey to its final destination.
