Case Study: Modernizing Agricultural Trait Development with a Configurable Digital Platform

A leading Ag-Bio company advancing crop innovation needed a modern digital foundation to manage its expanding trait development programs. With multiple plant species, complex production pipelines, and rising throughput demands, its legacy LIMS could no longer support the full lifecycle of trait development or the volume of data generated across greenhouse, tissue culture, and screening stages. The organization required a configurable platform that could scale with its science, integrate with automation, and offer an intuitive experience for both technical and non-technical users.

The company adopted L7|ESP® to digitalize and track plant tissue lines across the complete crop production cycle. Initial workflow chains established structured processes for priority crops, and internal teams quickly began creating additional workflows using L7’s low-code tools. This shift enabled the organization to become true citizen developers of its digital ecosystem.

Today, L7|ESP supports real-time data ingestion from automated systems, high-throughput sampling across thousands of plant lines, streamlined documentation with L7 Notebooks, and centralized, audit-ready records. The platform provides a scalable, configurable digital backbone that strengthens current R&D operations and positions the organization for future expansion, including broader manufacturing-level digitalization.
