Laboratory management software: Your key to more production output
The digital lab management triangle: LIMS + lab planning + integration into production planning
Laboratories are an integral part of the modern value chain. As labs are often organized decentrally, they are thus not well integrated into overall corporate processes and solutions. Moreover, labs are often not much automated when it comes to the collection of measurement data. Accordingly, lab resources could not be utilized to full capacity. This bottleneck can either under-utilise or over-utilise laboratories, which in turn, may affect the efficiency of the entire organisation negatively.
Germanedge laboratory management software synchronizes lab and production planning and fully integrate labs into the ERP and MES environment. This allows short- to long-term detailed planning and scheduling of future workloads in quality control and production laboratories as well as quality inspections.

Functions of our laboratory management software:
Functionalities of a Laboratory Information and Management System (LIMS):
The basis of our lab management software is the basic and advanced functionalities of our Laboratory Information and Management System (LIMS). These include integrated workflow management, seamless status management, reliable sample management, process automation and integrated test equipment management.
Long-, medium- and short-term planning of laboratory capacities
To efficiently reduce laboratory overloads, individual or multiple test lots can be rescheduled simultaneously in an uncomplicated manner. Simulative test lots can also be created for early detection and elimination of capacity bottlenecks. A transfer to the common synchronized database from laboratory and production planning is possible at any time.
Integration in horizontal and vertical planning levels without system breaks
Central data storage makes it possible to integrate capacities, material flows or personnel requirements of laboratory planning into all relevant planning runs of production
Planning horizon of laboratory planning analogous to that of production planning
This procedure allows precise capacity forecasting and early identification of capacity bottlenecks in the laboratories. On the basis of real-time data processing, it is possible to react flexibly to changing business events and to carry out agile short-term planning of the laboratories.
