Company
Stratocore’s mission is to provide enterprise level software for collective resource management in scientific research laboratory environments; founded upon the established success of our flagship product PPMS (Platform Pilot Management Software) used by thousands of users, in over fifty institutions worldwide.
Stratocore has been created in 2011 by the team behind the PPMS software project, started in 2003. We have many years of facility management experience, and PPMS was developed specifically to address the challenges we faced. Over the years, PPMS has evolved, driven by activity growth and institution-wide consolidation projects.
After sharing our software with other institutions, and establishing SaaS solutions in this context, we have decided to found Stratocore to provide a turn-key, supported, hosted solution based on PPMS.
We are very excited to bring the software to the next level, and we will continue adding many new features based on the PPMS users in-the-field feedback.
