OS-LIMS integrates the quality management system
OS-LIMS is a comprehensive, user-friendly and flexible Laboratory Information and Management System (LIMS) for automating the daily laboratory processes and workflows, quality control, administration, budget control and conformance to statutory specifications in your laboratory.
Through integrated and performance-opriented testing instructions and sampling plans, analysis plans, work lists and progress checks as well as standardized approval options, OS-LIMS ensures optimal planning and work flows in your laboratory.
The modern web-based architecture of OS-LIMS ensures low cost of ownership and reduces the processing times while keeping intact the data quality and integrity.
OS-LIMS provides your Quality Assurance system an instrument that fully meets the requirements of GLP, ISO 900x, HACCP, GAMP, GMP, EN45001 etc.. Data access can be defined according to applications, function, field, report, etc. The query options allow for efficient tracking of all registered data with the option of saving user-specific queries. Using the automated data trial on all data, the system ensures that all the relevant original data and its changes are stored in the database.
OS-LIMS enables optimal data exchange with other applications such as Product development and Recipe management, process control, ERP, Logistics and Financial Management as well as integration in Microsoft Office.
OS-LIMS has been specially designed to meet the requirements of the food processing industry and is being used in different countries in different languages. As this software package is being used by different companies, it meets the requirements of various types of laboratories.
OS-LIMS is a tool for automation and support for the most important administrative labor tasks:
- Sample planning and sampling
- Marking samples with barcode and labels
- Capturing data about samples and requirements
- Forwarding work lists and samples
- Analysis
- Documenting and validating results
- Monitoring tolerance limits
- Reporting (evaluations, graphs, testimonials, management information)
- Interfaces to users and measuring devices
- Management of testing and measuring aids
- Capturing costs, Cost center analysis
- Lot tracking
- Administration of production data
- Document management
- Integration with higher and lower systems
In the production area, the laboratory supports the activities right from controlling the goods entry via process and product monitoring until final inspection.
