Highlights of the 2003 version include major functional enhancements to the statistical quality control and stability modules
Thermo Electron announces the release of the latest generation of its flagship enterprise Lims (laboratory information management system), SampleManager 2003 release 1.
The highlights of the new version include major functional enhancements to the SampleManager SQC (statistical quality control) and stability modules.
A host of new features have also been incorporated to ease general system administration and to improve a user's ability to review data when it is needed.
Statistical quality control is essential in the day to day running of industrial processes and has a key role in optimising productivity.
The SampleManager SQC module provides the power and flexibility to monitor all laboratory data over time.
Trend analysis is also incorporated to provide advanced warning that a process may be out of statistical control.
Further new developments in SampleManager 2003 include enhancements to report management, new ad hoc browsing capability and a new feature that allows role-based submission for inspection and authorisation of items (samples, tests, analyses, etc) by a specific group of individuals, rather than a single user.
With an installed base of over 1100 systems and around 45,000 daily users worldwide, SampleManager is one of the most established and industrially robust Lims on the market.
The solution is designed to support laboratory operations and integrate those operations into the corporate enterprise.
Industries served include manufacturing, chemicals and process, pharmaceutical, food and beverages, water and environmental.
