Description

IDBS Polar is an integrated software platform that breaks down data silos in life science R&D through to Manufacturing. By combining the capabilities of an electronic laboratory notebook (ELN), laboratory information management system (LIMS), and laboratory execution system (LES) in one environment, Polar organizes scientific data and captures experimental information at the source, ensuring it is structured, standardized and context-rich. This unified approach provides a single source of truth for all your experiments, samples, and processes, connecting different workflows so that data generated across discovery, development, and CMC (Chemistry, Manufacturing & Controls) activities is automatically linked and easily searchable. The result is faster, more informed decision-making—with AI/ML-ready data and real-time insights that help accelerate innovation in the lab.

Polar, a significant evolution of E-WorkBook, was developed in recognition that our customers’ needs have grown over time. Polar has been designed to better support our customers’ digital transformation journeys; while retaining all the operational productivity benefits of E-WorkBook, Polar includes additional capabilities and a robust data modeling architecture for improved insight, scalability and innovation to help transform drug development processes.
