About Agilent

Agilent evaluation programs connect evidence, workflow, and lifecycle controls

This site organizes product and procurement questions for laboratory and care teams. Model-specific facts remain governed by current official documentation and contractual scope.

Evaluation roadmap

A staged path from requirement to controlled operation

The dates illustrate a sample capital-project schedule, not a product-release commitment.

  1. Requirements freeze

    Lock matrix, method, throughput, interfaces, evidence list, and acceptance criteria.

  2. Document review

    Evaluate regulatory status, QMS scope, risk documentation, cybersecurity, and service terms.

  3. Site verification

    Run precision, carryover, reportable-range, interface, and exception-path test cases.

  4. Controlled go-live

    Complete training, competency records, QC release, change control, and escalation handoff.

  5. Lifecycle evidence

    Review service records, software changes, complaints, drift, utilization, and replacement assumptions.

Decision record

Five control points prevent undocumented handoffs

  1. URSUser requirements approved by laboratory, IT, quality, and procurement
  2. RAModel and market regulatory evidence verified by the accountable reviewer
  3. IQ/OQInstallation and operational qualification evidence accepted against protocol
  4. PQLocal performance qualification completed under intended workflow conditions
  5. PMSPost-market and lifecycle review assigned with a defined cadence
