Buy for demand. Plan with confidence.

Forecast demand. Plan the purchase.

Epiq uses laboratory activity and stock records to forecast reagent demand and recommend purchases. Your team decides what to buy; the supplier receives a request with reagents and required quantities.

How Epiq works.

Epiq: from laboratory data to a supplier purchase listLaboratory, warehouse, procurement and finance teams provide source data from ERP, LIMS and REST API connections. Epiq uses consumption, stock, batch and expiry records to forecast reagent demand and recommend purchase quantities. A person reviews the recommendation and decides what to buy. The result is a supplier request with reagents and required quantities.Epiq: from laboratory data to a supplier purchase listLaboratory, warehouse, procurement and finance teams provide source data from ERP, LIMS and REST API connections.

How the pilotworks.

Start with one laboratory and a defined group of reagents. Agree how to assess the forecast and procurement recommendations.

  1. Define the scope

    Choose the laboratory and reagent group. Agree the planning horizon and criteria for a useful result.

  2. Connect the data

    Identify laboratory activity, reagent consumption and stock sources. Agree access with your team.

  3. Review recommendations

    Review forecast demand and proposed quantities with the team. Adjust the request before sharing it with the supplier.

  4. Assess the result

    Compare the forecast with actual demand and assess the recommendations against the pilot criteria.

Start witha focused pilot.

Questions & answers

Practical answers about scope, systems and your team.

What does an EpiQ AI pilot look like?

We begin with one recurring operating decision, connect the data needed for that decision, and give the responsible team a working EpiQ workflow. The goal is to evaluate fit and value before expanding the scope.

Can EpiQ work with our current ERP and data sources?

EpiQ is designed to connect with existing ERP, finance, inventory, laboratory, and operational systems. Pilot scope determines which sources and integration method are appropriate first.

Which teams usually start first?

Finance, supply, inventory, operations, and quality teams are strong starting points because they make recurring decisions from shared data and can define a concrete outcome.

How do you handle access and approval requirements?

We map source ownership, user roles, decision rights, and approval steps during pilot design. The workflow is shaped around your governance requirements rather than bypassing them.
