The past decade has seen an explosion in the number of samples generated for research and analysis - largely due to the increased focus on translational medicine and epidemiology. In addition, a significant increase and focus on high quality sample yields and how they are accurately and efficiently managed is now a top concern for researchers who are often charged with managing enormous volumes of both samples and their relevant data.

What do chemical manufacturers in basic and intermediate chemicals, specialty chemicals, agricultural chemicals, household chemicals, personal care products, plastics and fibers, paints and coatings and others all have in common? Analytical laboratories in these areas are faced with significant corporate pressures to lower costs, control waste, reduce inventory, increase efficiency, maintain regulatory compliance, all while experiencing exponential growth in data acquisition, tracking and management. These corporate pressures are being driven by fierce market and competitive forces to create new compounds and lower margins by improving throughput, maximizing yield and resolving quality problems faster efficiently and effectively.

Contract Labs
|
As companies look to control their resources and expenses, contract laboratories are being used to add laboratory capacity for both routine and specialised analysis. Contract labs have to manage their sample tracking and throughput as well as delivering on customer demands for flexible reporting and rapid availability of analytical results. The laboratory informatics must be connected with order processing and invoicing systems within the contract labs to ensure the smooth running of commercial operations.

To stay competitive and agile in an ever increasing and complex environment, pharmaceutical and biotech companies are outsourcing more and more research spending. The result of this is that Contract Research Organizations (CROs) have seen exponential growth by offering a more focused and expertise-rich approach to their services. The major success factor of CRO providers is based on being able to deliver market-specific, high-performance technology with expandable capacity and quicker delivery speed. CROs must employ tools to help them integrate their data to speed their processes and to connect with their customers outside of the laboratory.

In the Pharmaceutical industry being the first to market a new drug can result in hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue in the 1st few years alone. As a result, drug discovery and research laboratories are employing High Throughput Informatics (HTI) and study management solutions to cut their development time up to 4 to 10 times, by using tools that acquire, analyze and present their data.

When testing for multiple analytes in complex matrices - whether it be soils, effluent, waste waters, rivers, estuarine water, air, emissions, or noise - environmental testing professionals require straightforward LIMS navigation and easily accessible electronic data reports. Even within the field of environmental analysis there are different requirements between different laboratories. A wastewater site lab, for example, may need different functionality to that required by a commercial environmental lab.

Better, cheaper, faster. The goals of most Food and Beverage manufacturers are driven by these demands. Frequent product changeovers, mega-retailer pressure, product variability and increasing regulatory demands dominate the industry. All while intense competition applies pressure to lower costs and increase throughput across your organization. Consumer awareness of quality and safety has dramatically increased in recent years and as a food or beverage manufacturer, your organization must ensure that operations throughout the supply chain are in control and in compliance with industry regulations and standards.

Forensic laboratories provide services in the areas of biochemistry (DNA Analysis), latent prints, trace evidence, documents, drug analysis, firearms and toxicology for a wide range of customers such as law enforcement agencies, pathology labs, prisons, drug rehabilitation centers and private customers. The exponential growth in sample analysis in recent years has forced forensic labs to turn to LIMS systems to efficiently manage of large volumes of data including case information evidence, evidence items, victims, suspects, and charges.

It is estimated that there are over 10,000 mining and metals companies in the world, and some 20,000 mines, processing plants and smelters. In the last several decades, the international mining industry has expanded rapidly into all corners of the world. Growing global demand for minerals, combined with an increasingly open economic and political climate for investment in much of the world has meant that areas that were once all but inaccessible to large-scale development are now available and attractive investments. Much of this expansion has been away from the more traditional, developed mining areas and into mineral rich countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia.

Every element of the Petroleum process laboratories, whether it be Upstream (Exploration, Production and Transmission) or Downstream (Refining, Blending and Distribution) is faced with significant corporate pressures to lower costs, control waste, reduce inventory, increase efficiency, maintain regulatory compliance, all while experiencing exponential growth in data acquisition, tracking and management. These pressures are being driven by fierce market and competitive forces to increase margins by improving throughput, maximizing yield and resolving quality problems speedily, efficiently and effectively.

The pharmaceutical industry is unique in many ways. The challenges facing pharmaceutical companies, including large pharma, biotech and generic manufacturers are sometimes overwhelming. Diverse laboratories, regulatory constraints, complex batch management and testing needs all demand sophisticated, enterprise-level informatics solutions. In this regard, data collection can be both a burden and the solution, for validation comes through information, but the systems that provide the information must themselves comply with the regulatory requirements they work to satisfy.
