Laboratory information management

LIMS by VXW

Lab inventory, experiments and machines in one record the whole team works from. Every page works on a phone, and scanning a QR label opens the lot, shelf or machine in front of you.

Experiments

  • Recipes with numbered versions and a release step
  • An optional second approver for four-eyes release
  • Runs follow a released version at the bench and record what was actually used
  • Measurements are kept beside each step

Inventory

  • A stock ledger for every lot with receipts, uses, splits and counts, each with who, when and why
  • Quantities convert between units exactly
  • Expiring lots and items due for reorder show up without anyone checking

Labels and stocktakes

  • QR labels for lots, storage locations and machines
  • A stocktake means walking the shelves and scanning as you go

Machines

  • Service, calibration and faults go into a log that cannot be rewritten
  • Due dates are derived from that log
  • Machines can be booked by the week

Hazards

  • Items carry their SDS reference, GHS pictograms, signal word and CLP hazard statements
  • Lot labels show the pictograms. They are auxiliary labels, not CLP labels

Audit trail and access

  • Every change is kept with the person, the time and the reason
  • Access follows roles and permissions

Accounts are by invitation. Your lab's admin creates them.
