Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)

A Laboratory Information Management System plays a supporting role to QMS by digitizing, automating, and enforcing data integrity across lab operations. While QMS defines the quality standards, LIMS offers the operational infrastructure to ensure compliance with standards such as ISO and GMP. Key functions include managing samples, ensuring traceability, documenting deviations, handling out-of-specification results, and automating workflows, thus minimizing human errors and enhancing efficiency.
