Lab Information Management System Benefits (Significance and Benefits of QATrax V6)

Unlocking the Benefits of a Lab Information Management System (LIMS)

A laboratory information management system (LIMS) is a software solution designed to optimize and manage laboratory operations. LIMS facilitates efficient management of lab workflows, data, test units, and processes. It is used to automate routine laboratory tasks, store data securely, and generate reports quickly and accurately. LIMS offers a range of features that enable lab staff to streamline their workflows and improve operational efficiency, including test unit tracking, quality control, data management, and much more. By utilizing LIMS, labs can better manage their lab's resources, reduce errors, increase accuracy, and enhance the quality of the data generated. LIMS is a powerful tool that helps laboratories improve productivity, increase efficiency, and reduce costs.

Our software, QATrax LIMS, is a powerful laboratory information management system (LIMS) for tracking and scheduling utilized by engineering labs. 


What are the key advantages of LIMS?

A laboratory information management system (LIMS) offers a host of advantages that make it an essential tool for modern laboratories. One of the key benefits of LIMS is its ability to streamline routine laboratory tasks, saving time and reducing errors. LIMS also provides secure data storage and retrieval, ensuring the integrity and accuracy of the data generated. Additionally, LIMS offers powerful tools for managing data, enabling lab managers to make informed decisions more quickly and efficiently.

Another significant advantage of LIMS is its ability to facilitate collaboration and communication between different teams within the laboratory. With features such as auto-scheduling, LIMS helps lab managers optimize their workflows and schedules and manage their resources effectively. Overall, LIMS is an invaluable tool that enables laboratories to improve productivity, reduce costs, and enhance the quality of their services.


QATrax (LIMS) Version 6

The Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) is a flagship tool of modern lab digitization, providing a software-based system to manage samples/test units and data. The QATrax LIMS V6 is a next-generation laboratory information management system proven to improve laboratory performance. It is designed to maximize efficiency and accuracy by optimizing the flow of laboratory testing and associated laboratory data together.


V6 new software benefits

One of the key benefits of QATrax V6 is its ability to store all testing information and results in a centralized database. Keep all associated data for your test lab in one system. This feature eliminates the need to sift through scattered notes or emails to find critical information, saving time and reducing errors. Additionally, the software's barcode scanning technology accelerates lab work and simplifies the testing process, simply scanning to easily bring up a work order.

The auto-scheduling and auto-rescheduling functions are another standout feature of QATrax V6. These features help ensure that testing tasks are completed on schedule, saving time and improving overall operational efficiency. Furthermore, the software provides dashboard views and searchability, allowing users to find the information they need quickly.

QATrax V6 is a comprehensive solution for labs looking to improve efficiency, accuracy, data integrity, and compliance with ISO 17025 standards. The software's features, including single repositories for testing and test results, automation of tasks, and data export capabilities, can help labs increase their productivity while maintaining compliance. Trust QATrax V6 to help your lab reach its full potential. 

Version 6 focuses on ease of use, flexibility, and a new, modern LIMS tech stack. It includes a LIMS Homepage, Requestor, and Operator applications and add-on modules such as Report Builder, EUT Form Builder, Work Request Form Builder, and Auto Rescheduler. Here is information from our latest version of QATrax V6.


QATrax: Operator Toolkit

Operator Toolkit is a powerful feature of our LIMS software that transforms how technicians interact with work orders.

This application offers a user-friendly interface to simplify things for technicians and other users. This upgraded UI streamlines workflow to save time on every job.

The operator toolkit offers technicians a clean and easy-to-use user interface for scanning, work order searching, changing status, adding test results, adding notes, making timesheet entries, and adding test equipment to work orders.

Enhanced attachments in the V6 Operator Application include adding tags to photos that pull the images directly into the report builder application.

The Operator Toolkit eliminates the need to install the QATrax client on workstations. Instead, this allows users to login into QATrax through their browser, the same as the QATrax Requestor application. Additionally, Test Operators can use IOS and Android Devices to access QATrax in the lab.

This application provides an ideal solution for any technician looking for an efficient way to handle their work orders.

The Operator Toolkit simplifies test management like never before, helping users complete tasks faster, more efficiently, and more accurately.


QATrax: Web Requestor

Web Requestor offers users flexible and robust features that help build test plans.

Users can easily re-sequence tests. They can drag and drop one or many work orders to a new sequence in the plan. Users can also easily insert new work orders anywhere in the plan.

Using the Work Request Form Builder Module, Work Request Managers can customize the Create Work Request form to include the specifics of their organization requests. This eliminates the need to engage TraxStar for customization services by empowering the users to make their changes beyond the default form and gain more control by requiring crucial information from requestors before issuing a work request ID.

Users can search for existing Test Units or Test Unit Groups or add new ones to request test methods. Customers can create EUT templates using the Configuration Manger Module with specific components and parameters unique to their product lines. Requestors then populate these parameters when adding new units to the system.

Requestors can create new versions of units when components and/or parameters are changed. Customers then can see which versions were associated with any specific work order.

Enhanced Work Order Notes allow more accessible communication with lab management and operators and are saved and time-stamped with the work order.

QATrax: Report Builder

Gain more control over your exports with the new Report Builder. Users define their reports by uploading custom Excel and Word documents into the system. Simply select your test information and have it automatically inserted into your documents.

Report Builder is the game-changer for Engineering Teams. Engineering Labs have a difficult job, and building reports is time-consuming. With Report Builder, users can design report templates directly in their favorite Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), inserting data tags that will be automatically updated with the details of the work request selected. Furthermore, Report Builder provides advanced attachment features that enable pictures to be easily inserted into reports so users can see work request details, attachments, and test plans - all with a few simple clicks.

Gone are the days spent manually entering data and creating complicated report formats. Instead, Report Builder offers an intuitive interface that allows users to quickly and easily generate reports and view and edit them with minimal effort.

Even better? The automated populating of reporting frameworks means no more worrying about forgetting to include essential data entry images or equipment details - Report Builder takes care of it all!

It's also easy to save creations as templates for future use or collaboration projects, guaranteeing that documents adhere to high standards while minimizing labor costs. Report Builder offers engineer teams elevated workflow for test reporting to help unlock your team's full potential.
