## Description
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is comprised of over fifty laboratories, representing approximately fifteen major science areas, varying from Chemical and Biological Sciences to Medical, Nuclear, Thermal and Quantum technologies. Due to a previous lack of strategic investment, the laboratories have over the last twenty years or so operated autonomously, with little commonality between processes and systems implemented.
 With the aim of leveraging digital technologies to facilitate efficiencies in laboratory operations and compliance, and knowledge-sharing to support our strategic goal of creating impact from science and engineering, NPL intends to implement a common Laboratory Information Management solution and processes across the organisation. Initially, the selected application will be implemented in a pilot project in our newly opened Mechanical Testing facility, within the Advanced Engineering Materials (AEM) group.
