Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving
science, has established a new partnership with Puerto Rico-based distributor
QIS to extend its informatics offerings in the Caribbean. The new distribution
agreement allows QIS to support sales activities in Puerto Rico and the wider
Caribbean for the complete Thermo Scientific informatics product range, focusing
on Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) and Chromatography Data
Systems (CDS). Dedicated sales experts will target a number of industries which
are strong in Puerto Rico, and which Thermo Fisher has long served, including
the pharmaceutical, petrochemical and chemical markets.
Puerto Rico is host of one of the largest concentration of
pharmaceutical manufacturers in the world, and QIS is strategically placed to
provide locally-based companies with the full range of Thermo Scientific
informatics solutions. QIS already successfully supplies and supports Thermo
Scientific instruments in Puerto Rico, and aims to strengthen the company’s
informatics offering in Puerto Rico through this new partnership. Customers will
now have access to Thermo Fisher’s full informatics portfolio including Darwin
LIMS™, Atlas CDS™, SampleManager™ and GRAMS™.
Oliver Faidi Cortés, director of Latin America and Caribbean
sales for informatics at Thermo Fisher Scientific, comments, "This new
partnership demonstrates our commitment to expanding and improving our services
in Puerto Rico. We have served this region for more than 20 years, helping
customers in a wide range of industries to improve production performance and
quality while reducing operational costs. QIS has developed a deep knowledge of
local businesses, as well as of Thermo Fisher as a company. We feel that this
perfectly positions QIS to promote and support our informatics portfolio for
both new and existing customers."
Milton Hernandez, President of QIS, confirms, "QIS focuses on
the Puerto Rican market, with an experienced 15-strong team on the ground. QIS
will offer sales, technical support and repairs to the island, bringing a local
dedicated approach to the Thermo Fisher activity in the region."
