A Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) is software designed to electronically store laboratory data. It is the accepted standard for data storage and retrieval throughout the analytical laboratory industry.
Though each commercially available LIMS has different features, generally a LIMS allows you to log samples, enter analyses, and record, retrieve, and report test results electronically.
Register every incoming sample, one at a time or as a batch, so nothing is lost between receipt and result.
Record the tests run against each sample, using the methods and parameters your lab works with.
Keep every result in one searchable electronic system instead of paper forms and scattered spreadsheets.
Produce the reports your clients and regulators expect, without rekeying data by hand.
Not only do LIMS allow laboratory professionals to store complex testing data, many also enable reporting capabilities for labs to make sense of their data. After all, what good is your data if you can’t gain valuable insights from it?
Many LIMS can also be integrated or configured with 3rd-party software to streamline operations, enhance scientific processes, or report results to satisfy state or federal reporting requirements. J Street LIMS can do all this and more.
LIMS can also ensure robust quality assurance standards for sample management. Laboratories in many industries are often required by law to operate a LIMS to ensure compliance in their data management practices.
It’s safe to say that LIMS are vital, mission-critical components in plenty of laboratory settings.
Scientists, lab workers, and support staff of laboratories in all disciplines use LIMS to organize their data. If your lab performs sample testing or records analyses, there’s a good chance you either already use some type of LIMS — or could benefit from using one.
J Street LIMS is perfect for small to mid-sized labs. Many of our clients are internal and commercial analytical laboratories in:
J Street LIMS is built for small to mid-sized analytical laboratories, and backed by a team that has developed and supported Windows applications since 1996. Tell us about your lab and we will show you how it fits.
