This thesis investigates solutions to automate a lab process and give the customer basis for investment. An analysis of the current lab process and interviews with the staff were performed to set requirements for an automated solution. The customer wants to perform an analysis on a large number of combinations between antibiotics and bacteria. The issues that an automated solution is not able to handle were identified for the customer. A market analysis of existing solutions was preformed and contact was established with different suppliers. The suggested products were evaluated by performance and if they would be able to adapt to the process. The evaluation shows that with the same number of working hours the customer can increase the productivity with 6.7 times using a semi-automated system and a fully-automated system will result in an increase of 18.3 times. A guidance of how the customer will implement the system is described in the report. The report shows that an automated solution will make their process more efficient.
