Thermo Fisher Scientific has announced the launch of its software-as-a-service (SaaS), enterprise-class laboratory information-management system.
LIMS-on-Demand is said to allow organisations of varying types and sizes to leverage the benefits of an industry-leading LIMS solution without the time and cost typically associated with on-premise software installation.
The company will demonstrate its next-generation LIMS-on-Demand solution at Thermo Scientific booth 2757 during Pittcon 2010, being held 28 February - 5 March in Orlando.
LIMS-on-Demand is said to be able to significantly reduce the capital investment associated with traditional LIMS implementation and validation by eliminating the need for extensive software testing and installation.
On-demand access provides a more flexible alternative to conventional LIMS, so organisations can more easily and cost-effectively adapt technology as needs change.
For the cost of a monthly subscription fee, a laboratory can easily, affordably and securely access a fully functional, validated solution through a standard web browser.
The intuitive web interface enables connectivity with a variety of internal instruments and systems as well as external facilities, partners and regulatory agencies.
LIMS-on-Demand offers flexibility and ease of use, helping organisations to replace inefficient, error-prone manual processes with an automated data-management solution.
Customers can create workflows, map sample lifecycles and generate automatic updates while providing users with rapid access to up-to-the-minute data and information that impacts every phase of laboratory processes.
