Six Tips to Optimize Your LabWare Implementation and Upgrades

In this blog, we’ll discuss key best practice recommendations to follow during your LabWare implementation or upgrade that to ensure your project is successful in optimizing compliance, improving quality, and reducing costs to drive increased productivity and innovation in your laboratory.

Maintaining and Upgrading LabWare LIMS

In order to maximize ROI on your LabWare LIMS, it is critical to create a strategy to accomplish system maintenance and upgrades in an efficient and effective manner once the system is implemented to ensure compliance and reduce the overall cost of ownership of your LabWare LIMS.

Case Studies

Case Study: LabWare LIMS Implementation for a Global CRO

A global contract research organization (CRO) specializing in clinical research faced with replacing a 25-year-old laboratory informatics system (LIMS) that was central to running their core business.

The Astrix Impact:

The resulting LabWare Services solution has delivered numerous benefits to the laboratory staff, including:

  • Simplified workflows in the lab.
  • Better insight into laboratory workflows and supporting data.
  • Real-time visibility into production issues with the instruments.
  • Ability to spot potential bottlenecks in the capacity for throughput.
  • Enhanced reporting capabilities, providing better traceability of the samples across the business process workflows. Better laboratory performance. Due to the enhanced data management capabilities, the throughput of laboratory samples was improved by almost 50%. This has allowed the client to process a greater number of samples at a time.
  • Fewer systems to manage. As a result of this project, the client was able to consolidate 5-6 different legacy systems being utilized in the laboratory domain into one.

Case Study: SAP Augmentation via LabWare Integration

Astrix LabWare Integration enabled a global company with operations across 54 countries to streamline their process for entering, documenting, and reporting their compliance with environmental regulations associated with water quality, including ISO/IEC 17025. In under six months, the client enjoyed measurably faster sample lifecycle with dramatically larger volume of samples analyzed.

The Astrix Impact:

The project was completed in 5 months, on-time and on-budget—a success in the eyes of the client. Project results included:

  • Company employees succeeded at integrating an impressive volume of RS232 instruments (such as scales) and complex instruments (such as HPLC).
  • Data flow between the Laboratory and Quality Control functions is faster and more reliable as a result of the LabWare interface with SAP.
  • Sample lifecycle is faster, with a dramatically increased volume of sample analysis, as a result of the rate of calculations performed by the LabWare system.
  • The company was able to document compliance with governmental regulations and with ISO/IEC 17025 thanks to the LabWare audit and traceability features.
