Analytical Automation Specialists

Analytical Automation Specialists was a U.S.-based laboratory informatics company focused on Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) used to automate laboratory workflows, data handling, and reporting. The company served analytical and laboratory customers rather than developing therapeutics, and its business was centered on software and information management tools for lab operations. It appears to have been founded in the mid-1990s and headquartered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Analytical Automation Specialists was acquired by PerkinElmer Instruments in April 2001 to expand PerkinElmer's laboratory informatics capabilities. As a result, the standalone company is no longer active as an independent business.
