Austin, TX – August 20, 2025 — L7 Informatics is underscoring a critical shift in digital transformation for life sciences: moving away from brittle integrations toward orchestration. This process-centric architecture is emerging as the foundation for resilient IT systems, enabling organizations to adapt faster, reduce costs, and prepare for AI-driven innovation.
For decades, life sciences organizations have relied on point-to-point integrations to connect their growing ecosystem of ELNs, LIMS, MES, instruments, and business systems. While effective in the short term, this strategy has created technical debt and fragile architectures that slow innovation.
“Traditional integration is not sustainable,” said Teodor Leahu, VP of Strategy at Development at L7 Informatics. “Every new system or workflow tweak increases complexity and risk. Orchestration breaks this cycle by decoupling systems and processes, preserving scientific meaning, and giving organizations the agility to evolve without disruption.”
Instead of requiring thousands of direct integrations, orchestration introduces a shared layer where each system connects once. This layer standardizes, contextualizes, and routes tasks, eliminating ripple effects when systems change. It also allows organizations to define their own semantic data models (rather than being locked into vendor-specific schemas), ensuring consistency across evolving instruments and modalities.
Practical benefits include streamlined processes such as sample registration. With orchestration, scientists can register samples once, while the orchestration layer manages routing and formatting across multiple systems. This reduces redundancy, minimizes error, and frees researchers to focus on science rather than system navigation.
Beyond flexibility, orchestration provides a pathway to AI. By managing both system and data decoupling, it creates the foundation for advanced analytics, generative AI, and knowledge graph development. A recent McKinsey & Company report estimates that consolidating software and migrating to cloud-based architectures can free up as much as 30% of R&D IT spending, resources that orchestration helps unlock.
