Sonnet Business Systems Limited (“Sonnet”)  is a leading laboratory information systems (LIS) developer in Hong Kong founded by a group of information technology professionals. Since its inception in 1991, Sonnet has been providing information systems services to clinical laboratories, medical instrument providers and commercial business systems.

Our products include SLIMS, a laboratory information system that directs the full spectrum of laboratory accessioning, testing, reporting and billing in the future. Sonnet’s product also supports bilingual data input and result reporting to meet regional laboratory-specific requirements.

Rather than include all possible features that every lab might require, we have designed SLIMS as a solid baseline product that each site can customize. This approach makes SLIMS an affordable solution, unlike the one-size-fits-all products that are leaving the laboratory's actual needs behind. Since we support customizing, the additions of features specific to an individual laboratory are also possible.

Sonnet’s historical emphasis has been on the Hospital Laboratory and Private Laboratory market, which has provided extensive experience with the claims processing aspect of the business. In particular, Sonnet’s systems are designed to support the demands placed on laboratories. We continue to focus on current laboratory reimbursement issues, ranging from increasing Medicare restrictions to the general impact of managed care.
