Quality Management System and LIMS
The previous laboratory information management system (LIMS) is an internal system developed by the customer to track the quality data of the laboratory and used by specialized departments. Now, LIMS has begun to move toward standardization and become a 'corporate LIMS' system that not only supports all the functions in the laboratory but also integrates the entire company's application system.
The quality management function of SAP realizes the function of 'Enterprise LIMS' system. The solution not only provides all the functions required in industrial and commercial laboratories, but also extends the capabilities of quality management, including audit management, problem solving and quality assurance. SAP Quality Management System provides enterprises with integrated LIMS solutions and comprehensive quality management solutions that simplify implementation and integration processes and streamline quality processes.
In addition, SAP's quality management functions integrate seamlessly with SAP R/3, and R/3 is used as a platform for ERP management in many enterprises. SAP Quality Management provides an open interface that enables the integration of other SAP solutions and non-SAP solutions.
Through SAP's integrated approach to quality management, companies can embed quality assurance processes into their business processes, from production to logistics to finance, and enhance information sharing, data analysis, and reporting capabilities. Therefore, companies can reduce quality processing costs and time in the laboratory or the entire enterprise's business processes, improve product quality and customer satisfaction. This solution provides fast return on investment and reduces overall costs.
New progress in LIMS
Analytical laboratories such as research and development (R&D) laboratories, test laboratories, and quality assurance (QA) laboratories often use LIMS. LIMS facilitates efficient sample testing. Often these sample tests are performed in a specific laboratory by classifying the test information and meeting the adjustment requirements in a specific reporting format. A typical LIMS can be used to manage complete test procedures, from sample registration, testing, retesting, to final reporting.
LIMS was initially customized within the enterprise to improve the laboratory data acquisition and reporting process. The commercialization of LIMS products is currently being developed and is usually a departmental product developed by analytical tool manufacturers for use in the chromatograms they produce.
The standard LIMS on the market today has high flexibility and many functions. The most favored LIMS can provide an open system architecture and platform, provide a client/server architecture, and have easier access to laboratory information. LIMS is developing from information islands to a global information platform. As a result, companies are paying more and more attention to integrated 'corporate LIMS'.
ARC Consulting (US supply chain and manufacturing analyst organization) conducted a study of the 'LIMS Global Vision' in 2002. The research shows that global competition forces the process industry manufacturers to focus more on improving their return on assets, hoping to increase efficiency and flexibility through the use of collaborative production systems, increase responsiveness to customer needs, and greatly reduce costs. Therefore, a powerful LIMS is needed.
The study also shows that the benefits of a successful LIMS include reduced workload, improved accuracy and efficiency, and good service for internal and external customers. To achieve this goal and maximize the benefits from the investment, users realize that LIMS must integrate with all corporate departments and become a major part of the company's operations.
After an integrated and more integrated approach to LIMS and quality management, companies can share quality information and improve business processing speed and accuracy.
SAP quality management software goes beyond traditional LIMS
In recent years, SAP's quality management software has made major improvements in functionality, especially for the process industry. These improvements are quality management solutions that become an important tool for supporting analytical laboratories, and they also provide new options for companies that need LIMS.
The comprehensive function range provided by SAP's quality management greatly exceeds the traditional LIMS. It has integrated problem solving, event processing, calibration of scales, and audit management around processes such as inventory control and batch tracking. In addition, it provides seamless integration with the supply chain and other key areas within the company. Therefore, corporate goals can be implemented into LIMS. MySAPPLM can:
·Provide a standard platform to integrate quality management processes in all departments of the company ·Transform quality data transparently within the company ·Strengthen the communication between the quality management department and other departments SAP is a global leader in enterprise management software and collaborative business solutions More than 80% of Fortune 500 companies use SAP's business solutions.
