02/22/2023 - Laboratory Informatics in the Textile Manufacturing Industry Textile manufacturing depends heavily on laboratory testing to both monitor production and help ensure product quality. That requires fast access to information and the ability to generate reports that are meaningful to management, production personnel, and customer support specialists. Through its workflow management, results management, audit trail, and regulatory support functionality, a LIMS system can provide the support textile companies need to streamline lab operations and make it easier to produce, manage, access, and utilize lab data and information while reducing labor costs.

02/22/2023 - LIMS Migration Strategy The need for better organization of laboratory operations is well known. While today’s selection of commercial laboratory information management systems (LIMS) is a good start to organizing and running a lab, these solutions are only geared toward the management of wet lab operations. Existing solutions are inefficient for data-intensive laboratory operations that require significant bioinformatic data analyses. Therefore, in labs already burdened with the inefficiencies caused by unlinked functional silos, current LIMS solutions do nothing to resolve inefficiencies, and worse, laboratory operations remain fragmented.
