STARLIMS Congratulates the California Department of Health Services for its “Best of California Award”
STARLIMS Corporation, a leading global provider of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), today announced its congratulations to the California Department of Health Services (CDHS) for receiving the “Demonstrated Excellence in Project Delivery – Best of California Award”. CDHS received the award in recognition of its implementation of a STARLIMS solution in the Richmond Laboratory Complex, the tertiary public health lab for the State of California.
“We are delighted to see CDHS receiving this much-deserved recognition,” said Jeff Ferguson, Chief Operating Officer at STARLIMS Corporation. “The success of this project reflects the commitment and hard work of key CDHS managers, and the leadership of Mr. Chris Cruz, Senior Project Manager. We congratulate Mr. Cruz and CDHS on their achievements and look forward to continued collaboration.”
