Triple G haven't disappeared, just taken over by GE (see links page in
previous posting to Mike Hallworth). There are at least 3 users in this
country.

Clinisys / iSoft probably in 'most market share' group - ?? best UK service
fit. Within them various varieties of system due to mergers etc - therefore
depends on 'current offering'
Cerner a big contender because of CfH lever in South and London
Technidata still in the field
CoPath - Misys - working in Histopath
New kids on the block - StarLims - currently implementing in all UK genetics
labs
Possibly others around - TripleG seem to have disappeared.
We are probably in for a serious period of change driven by:
Whatever Carter recommends.
The integration of LIMS with Robot controllers for tracking
The potential consolidation of disciplines towards - blood sciences and
specialisms.
New testing modalities
Possible consolidation of screening centres
Use of POCT and community testing
Whether anything in the market fits that bill would be open to debate.
I am currently working on a potential 'Pathology IT Summit' Meeting for the
autumn. Biggest challenge I see is having the skills and staff capacity to
take on new systems / ways of delivering the IT agenda.
I'll keep you all posted as it develops
