Organizations involved in animal research need an integrated solution to manage and track the census, facilities and care of animals involved in research programs. Key Solutions’ web-based Research Administration and Compliance module for Husbandry is a management and record-keeping system that automates the entire processes of animal procurement/breeding, facilities management, animal care, data collection and billing; streamlining and centralizing the process and enhancing your research program.

You can manage animal census, facilities and cages, feeding schedules, bedding, cage changing intervals, daily cage inspections, animal transfers, billing and audit trail data. Details of each of these activities can be documented and reports generated. Record-keeping and monitoring is aligned with federal regulatory requirements for animal care and use.

The Husbandry module is fully-integrated with our IACUC Research Compliance software so you have centralized access to animal ordering and animal census for all studies to improve planning and to manage, track, trace and care for animals. In addition, your team has access to the Animal Study Compliance protocols at all times to ensure that orders are consistent with approved protocols.
