About Us

Biolabs Red Services Ltd is a Ugandan-based multinational consultancy firm dedicated to advancing quality management systems, laboratory accreditation, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) stewardship across Africa. Founded over a decade ago, Biolabs operates with its training arm — the Ethan Quality Management Institute — and collaborates with public and private institutions in Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan, and Malawi.

Recognized by the Ministry of Health, Uganda (ADM 171/388/01) and operating under the technical oversight of the Uganda National Health Laboratory Services/Central Public Health Laboratories (UNHLS/CPHL), Biolabs has become a strategic partner in laboratory systems strengthening, biosafety, and health-security initiatives. The company is duly registered with the Uganda Registration Services Bureau (URSB No. 80010000888175), and holds an active NCAGE Code: SGTY9, authorizing it to conduct business with NATO and allied governments under international contracting frameworks.

Biolabs’ mission is to enhance health-system performance through quality assurance, biosafety and biosecurity, and sustainable diagnostic stewardship. Its operations integrate internationally recognized standards — ISO 15189, ISO 17025, ISO 17043, ISO 17011, ISO 19011, ISO 35001, ISO 22367, and ISO 9001 — into context-appropriate mentorship and implementation frameworks that deliver measurable impact within resource-limited settings.

Through this integrated model, Biolabs empowers laboratories, hospitals, and public-health programs to achieve accreditation, strengthen surveillance systems, ensure patient safety, and contribute high-quality data for national and global health decision-making. The company’s approach emphasizes long-term systems strengthening, knowledge transfer, and sustainability — ensuring that capacity built today becomes institutionalized excellence tomorrow.
