ATL maintains a computerized Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). It provides benefits to
both ATL and its clients. Among its benefits are:
Project managers are designated to oversee the flow of incoming projects from the moment they are
scheduled to the time data is released and reviewed by our clients. Project managers are experienced
in scheduling services, responding to technical inquiries and providing price quotes.
Final reports are provided in a variety of formats. They can be customized for ease in data management.
ATL offers Electronic Disk Deliverables (EDDs), in addition to .PDF formats available for viewing in our secure Client Login.
