Manufacturing software to enable continual process improvement and quality control

 

Manufacturing organizations are constantly challenged with producing consistently high-quality products in less time and with fewer resources. To achieve this, organizations must streamline processes, connect systems, and implement continual process improvement. Thermo Scientific SampleManager LIMS software maps to laboratory processes, connects with production and other enterprise systems to share critical information, and enables continual improvement by driving quality and repeatability.

Driving quality control through all stages of production

Those tasked with quality control in manufacturing strive to ensure their product consistently meets the stringent specifications of the customer. Testing is carried out on raw materials and at various stages in production through to finished product before release. Such rigorous testing produces large amounts of data which must be shared with stakeholders quickly in order to make necessary adjustments to production controls. SampleManager LIMS software enables the management of batch relationships between raw materials, processed materials, and final products, and can be configured to ease compliance to ISO 17025 and other industry regulations. Multi-level specifications outline acceptable quality levels for different customers, enabling immediate checks and rapid product release.

Thermo Scientific SampleManager LIMS Software

LIMS designed to improve lab efficiency, speed turnaround time, and enable compliance with standards, such as ISO 17025. Standard ASTM methods are configured using the Laboratory Execution System (LES) to step analysts through procedures to ensure repeatable testing and quality results. Labs can rely on the LIMS security, electronic signature, and complete audit trail to enable compliance. Enterprise connectivity enables a holistic view of the organization, providing KPIs to decision makers to ensure quality, and automating actions to drive rapid product release.

Integration software

Flexible integration and data visualization capabilities are the foundation of the connected laboratory. Building a laboratory ecosystem that connects people, instruments, consumables, and software requires the right capabilities and tools. Thermo Fisher Scientific combines a complete suite of integration tools with expertise in connectivity, data visualization, e-commerce, services, and infrastructure, helping you uncover the hidden value of your data.

Collect
Collaborative work environment

Collect and share data securely in real-time with collaborators in your lab or across the globe.

Data Connectivity
Enterprise connectivity

Connect SampleManager LIMS software to Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELN), and CDS. 

Cloud
Cloud or on-premises deployment

Deploy SampleManager LIMS using your own or a Thermo Fisher-managed infrastructure, including servers, operating system and database, data backup, disaster recovery, and information security monitoring, reducing initial hardware and ongoing IT costs. 

Clipboard Checkmark
Compliance

Secure system access and capabilities to comply with the latest environmental and industry regulations like ISO 17025 and GMP.

Lock
Security

Cybersecurity is critical to ensure data integrity and business continuity. Ensure secure data and system access on premises or in the cloud.

Device Friendly View
Mobile LIMS

A mobile LIMS application makes features available via tablet in the lab or at a sampling point so you can take the LIMS with you to execute methods and collect and process samples. Record the GPS location of the sample and scan in the barcode using the device camera.

Cloud Analyze
Dashboards and data visualization

Reports are accessible via dashboards which give an overview at a glance. Any information stored within LIMS software can be displayed pictorially or in a dashboard, providing a quick snapshot of relevant information and Key Performance Indicators.

Computer
Reporting and data analytics

Information in the LIMS can be reported on, shared, analyzed, and audited. Statistical quality control (SQC) relationships and metadata are captured, enabling users to work with data in context.

Adjust Alt
Multi-level specifications

The LIMS enables instant checking of raw or in-process materials and finished products against agreed levels for different customers or markets.
