LABORATORY INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A LIMS is essential for a busy laboratory to streamline their processes and reduce the possibility of errors. Our LIMS manages all the usual processes of registration, capturing results and generating reports as well as some additional useful features such as quotations, proforma invoices and a customer portal. Integration with QMS and Asset Management ensures that cross-over functions are managed.
