Pipelines & Bioinformatics Consulting
For work that does not fit a standard service: we design and build reproducible pipelines, help you deploy nf-core workflows on your infrastructure, review analyses before submission and advise on study design before data are generated.
Who it is for
- Core facilities and research groups
- Biotech teams building internal capability
- Groups preparing a grant or a sequencing study
What you send us
- A description of the problemWhat the pipeline or analysis must do, and for whom.
- Your computing environmentLaptop, HPC scheduler or cloud account.
What you receive
- Version-controlled, tested pipeline or analysis
- Documentation and runbook
- Training session for your team
Methodology
How the work runs
Each step is agreed with you and documented. Typical tools: Nextflow · nf-core · Snakemake · Docker · Apptainer · Git · GitHub Actions
- DiscoveryA call to understand the problem, the data, the users and the constraints.
- ProposalWritten scope, milestones, deliverables and price.
- BuildIterative development in your repository, with regular check-ins and reviewable changes.
- Hand-overDocumentation, tests, a runbook and a training session for your team.
Quality controls
Checks applied to every project
- Version-controlled development with code review
- Automated tests on small datasets
- Containerised software with pinned versions
- Documentation tested by someone who did not write the code
Scope and limits
What the work can and cannot show
- Work on clinical or regulated pipelines requires your quality system; we work within it rather than replacing it.

Describe your data and questions. We reply with questions or a written quote.
It depends on the data type, the number of samples and the depth of interpretation you need. Every project receives a written quote with scope, deliverables, price and delivery date after a short exchange about your data and questions. The quote is free and carries no obligation.
Data are used only for your project, transferred through a channel you approve and deleted at the end of the engagement on request. We will sign your institution’s confidentiality agreement before any data are shared.
Ownership and licence are agreed in the proposal. By default, code written for your project is delivered to you with the right to use and modify it.
