The Hidden Costs of Underperforming Core Facilities
Most institutions are missing significant revenue opportunities while core facilities struggle with outdated processes.
Core facilities operating at 40-60% capacity while external clients can't easily find or access services, resulting in millions in unrealized revenue.
74% of core facilities do not recover their full operating costs, leaving universities, endowments, and VPR budgets to cover the shortfall.
Despite growing demand from pharma and biotech, only ~20% of core revenue comes from external clients the very stream that could unlock financial sustainability.
