Blood Bank Control System

BBCS Primary and Associated Products

The Blood Bank Control System has set the standard in the blood banking industry for more than three decades. From the first generation application released in 1987 to the latest product release, BBCS Primary 5.0, our system has provided leading blood banking organizations with secure, efficient, electronic blood bank software to support their operations and data management. The solution of choice for community and hospital-based primary facilities and numerous satellite locations nationwide, BBCS Primary currently supports more than 1.3 million units annually.

Our long-standing BBCS products include:
