Commmon Causes of LIMS Implementation Failures
A LIMS Implementation Failure can side track your R&D Efforts Due to the complex processes and technologies utilized in labs, and the many different aspects of the enterprise that laboratory systems touch, success in laboratory information management system (LIMS) projects can be difficult to achieve. A Successful LIMS Implementation project, in this case, is defined […]
Factors to Consider When Choosing the Best LIMS for Your Organization
Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) have become an essential workhorse in modern scientific laboratories. While LIMS were originally designed to simply track and control workflows in regulated environments, recent years have seen a dramatic expansion of LIMS capabilities outside of the traditional manufacturing Quality Management environment. These days, LIMS readily integrate with many different types […]
Integrating Multiple LIMS into a Single System
In today’s global economy, mergers and acquisitions have become a dominant strategy to improve profitability, maintain competitive edge, and expand services and reach. This practice is common in several industries such as pharmaceutical, biotech, food and beverage, oil and gas, and others. While corporate mergers certainly can provide several benefits for the organizations involved, they […]
LIMS Master Data Best Practices Part 1: Defining the Terms
Globalization and outsourcing trends, along with technological advancements that have dramatically increased the volume, complexity and variety of data, have created significant data management challenges for modern scientific laboratories. Most laboratories have responded to these challenges by implementing a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) that automates business processes and data capture associated with laboratory workflows. […]
Best Practices for Integrating LIMS with Empower
In the recent past, scientific laboratories utilized multiple separate informatics systems, lots of paperwork and numerous standardized operating procedures (SOPs) to achieve data integrity and comply with all regulatory requirements and best practices. Improving sample throughput and data integrity in this scenario was challenging, however, as it relied heavily on user intervention, purchase of extra […]
LIMS Selection for Genomics Labs
Next generation sequencing (NGS) is a parallel DNA sequencing technology that is able to carry out hundreds to millions of DNA sequencing reactions in parallel, along with the analysis of the sequencing data that is being produced. Utilizing this high-throughput NGS technology, researchers can now sequence an entire human genome quickly and relatively inexpensively, allowing […]
