Xavo Logistics Platform

Sample management that grows with your operations.

Start with structured inventory. Add fulfillment, dynamic computation and automation as your laboratory becomes more complex.

Xavo combines sample management and request fulfillment in one platform, with capabilities ranging from straightforward inventory and storage to complex, dynamically resolved sample operations.

Core. Professional. Enterprise. One Xavo platform.

Xavo Editions

Choose the level of complexity your lab needs.

Each edition builds on the same Xavo foundation. Start with the capabilities you need today and extend the platform as your sample operations grow.

Core

Manage what you have.

Reliable sample inventory, storage and traceability without unnecessary operational complexity.

Key capabilities
  • Sample inventory
  • Storage and locations
  • Sample state
  • Sample history
  • Traceability and audit trail
  • Basic request handling
Optional add-on
  • Multi-site inventory & shipment tracking
Best suited for

Laboratories that primarily need to answer:

What do we have, where is it, and what happened to it?
Typical environments
Research groups · Sample repositories · Biotechs with moderate throughput · Straightforward storage operations
Professional

Fulfill what is requested.

Turn structured requests into traceable sample operations with intelligent source selection and calculated sample preparation.

Everything in Core, plus
  • Order and request management
  • Source container selection
  • Transfer calculation
  • Dilution planning
  • Plate preparation
  • Intermediate containers
  • Business rules
  • Fulfillment traceability
Best suited for

Laboratories where fulfilling a request requires more than simply retrieving material.

Typical environments
Compound management · Biotechs with higher throughput · Screening support · Assay preparation · CRO/CDMO sample operations
Enterprise

Resolve complex sample operations at scale.

Extend Xavo into highly variable and automation-heavy laboratories with dynamic execution paths, resource logic and connected automation.

Everything in Professional, plus
  • Path Finder - dynamic deliverable computation
  • Advanced equipment models
  • Resource-aware routing
  • Automation integration
  • Dynamic recalculation
  • Advanced business rules
  • Enterprise-scale integrations
  • Scheduling and optimization (in development)
Best suited for

Laboratories where requests, resources and automation continuously interact and change.

Typical environments
High-throughput discovery · Automated sample stores · Complex liquid handling · Large-scale screening · Automation-heavy labs

Operating across several sites, CROs or storage partners? The multi-site add-on with shipment tracking is available from Core upwards.

Core

What do we have?

Core can show
  • Which compounds are available
  • Where they are stored
  • Current containers
  • Available material
  • Sample history and state
Outcome: You have reliable sample context.
Professional

How do we fulfill it?

Professional can additionally determine
  • Which source containers to use
  • Required transfer volumes
  • Required dilutions
  • Intermediate plates
  • Target layout
  • Fulfillment status
Outcome: The request becomes a defined sample preparation process.
Enterprise

How do we execute it in the lab we have right now?

Enterprise can additionally resolve
  • Suitable equipment
  • Resource availability
  • Execution route
  • Automation-specific instructions
  • Recalculation when conditions change
  • Scheduling (in development)
Outcome: The request becomes a resource-aware, executable sample operation.

Advanced Technology

Go beyond traditional sample management.

Xavo combines specialized technologies for request-specific computation, resource scheduling and laboratory connectivity.

Dynamic Deliverable Computation
Path Finder

Calculate what needs to happen.

Path Finder uses the requested deliverable, available sample context, configured capabilities and operating constraints to derive a request-specific execution path.

Path Finder can resolve
  • Suitable source containers
  • Required transformations
  • Transfers and dilutions
  • Intermediate plates
  • Valid execution routes
  • Required resources
Configure the stable process. Let Path Finder resolve the details of each request.

Included in Enterprise as a core component. Also available standalone, including with sample context provided by existing laboratory systems.

In development · Resource Optimization
Xavo Scheduling

Know what runs where - and when.

Xavo Scheduling combines predicted runtimes, resource availability and operational constraints to coordinate work across the laboratory.

Planned capabilities
  • Runtime prediction
  • Resource allocation
  • Capacity planning
  • Queue optimization
  • Multi-project scheduling
  • Schedule recalculation
  • Learning from execution history
Turn calculated work into a resource-aware execution plan.

Developed in a research project together with Goethe University Frankfurt, funded under the ZIM program.

Connectivity & Interoperability
Lab Spider

Connect Xavo to the laboratory around it.

Lab Spider exchanges context, instructions and execution state between Xavo and the systems that already operate in your lab.

Connect to
  • LIMS and ELN
  • Sample management platforms
  • Databases
  • Automated stores
  • Liquid handlers
  • Automation software
  • Laboratory instruments
Keep what works. Connect what Xavo needs.
