LIMS provider Starlims Corporation has released an integrated web services framework, a web service software application, whose public interfaces are described using XML allowing other software systems to control it.
Starlims' Web Services Framework exposes key LIMS elements such as Sample Login, Results Entry and a variety of quality related information distribution capabilities. These services are made available to arbitrary information systems running procurement, execution, material management, logistics, human resources, regulatory reporting and more. This platform-neutral approach relieves public organisations and enterprises from dependency on complex custom integration projects. In the long term the ongoing costs associated with the maintenance and validation of multiple interfaces is significantly reduced and Starlims' traceability functions are readily accessible throughout the supply chain.
Starlims' Web Services cohesive integration power can greatly enhance the overall efficiency of the laboratory as well as the entire enterprise.
Functional benefits of these types of implementations include:
* Leveraging LIMS traceability functions to enterprise data.
* Real-time updating of specifications or procedures.
* Rapid identification of process problems.
* Specification based rejection of raw materials and final products prior to usage or shipment.
