Genedata, the leading provider of enterprise software solutions for biopharmaceutical R&D, announced that they are entering into a strategic partnership with AGU, a leading provider of middleware integrating a wide range of devices in GxP validated and non-validated environments. The collaboration provides a fully integrated, comprehensive laboratory digitalization solution to automate data capture from instruments and streamline data flow into the Genedata enterprise platform.
“AGU’s expertise in integrating laboratory equipment is vital to help our biopharma customers to accelerate their digital transformation,” said Othmar Pfannes, Ph.D., CEO of Genedata. “With the Genedata Biopharma Platform, we focus on automating the full range of bioprocess development workflows while simultaneously maintaining an open and collaborative approach with other technology providers in the domain. This partnership will allow our joint customers to further simplify and automate instrument data capture while maintaining full data integrity, which will result in additional efficiency gains.”
“We have advanced Sm@rtline Data Cockpit®️ (SDC) into a widely adopted solution by developing device-specific drivers to automate the transfer of data from all major instrument manufacturers,” said Klaus Bruch, CTO and Co-Founder of AGU. “Importantly, we ensure GxP compliance for all our instrument integrations. This guarantees full data integrity according to highest standards. Using robust drivers, SDC extracts data ranging from simple instruments such as pH meters to more complicated instruments such as cell counters and metabolite analyzers.”

Used together, Genedata and AGU offer a comprehensive solution that delivers data from devices in highest quality, based on ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 standards, and also supports data consumers — including laboratory personnel, operators, process engineers, and data sciences groups. Having a fully integrated solution that automates instrument data capture and is maintained and supported out-of-the-box is a huge advantage for IT groups.
Since both Genedata and AGU work with the top-25 pharmaceutical companies globally, the companies’ shared customer base will benefit from the newly offered integrated platform, which will deliver substantial time and cost savings.
AGU was founded in 1992 and is based in Leverkusen (Germany). Our software solutions are marketed worldwide, and we develop our products exclusively “Made in Germany“. Today, AGU employs more than 90 people in the areas of industrial IT and process automation. Both areas especially complement each other which led to the development of SDC the Sm@rtLine Data Cockpit®️, which is used today by the 25 largest pharmaceutical companies in the world.
