Sample Scheduler for OpenLab

Sample Scheduler for OpenLab is add-on software that enhances the functionality of OpenLab CDS. Sample Scheduler improves your lab’s output by providing staff with a simple interface to manage their workload and send samples for analysis to any instrument. Lab managers will appreciate the full lab overview from a desktop or mobile device. Analysts and Operators will enjoy quickly setting up their runs from a single simple interface and the complete view of their daily workload.

All client-server installations of OpenLab CDS (v2.6 and higher) can access the Sample Scheduler Instrument Dashboard for an overview of the instrument status of all OpenLab CDS-connected instruments.

Implementation is as easy as activating the software. Achieve immediate operational improvement by simply applying a license with no implementation project. Optionally, integrate with your LIMS system to further improve throughput and ensure proper results attribution.

Features:

• Reduce implementation and maintenance costs ꟷ Out-of-the-box solution can be configured to meet your specific business needs. Rely on our dedicated support staff to troubleshoot and resolve issues quickly

• Improve lab productivity ꟷ Automate the worklist scheduling and assignment from LIMS and organize into a single analysis table in Sample Scheduler. Perform all actions from a single, central laboratory worklist

• Manage and optimize your lab ꟷ One software interface provides a lab-wide view of instruments and samples in process, allowing the user to assign the sample to the required, or next free, instrument for higher instrument utilization. Scheduled maintenance, calibration, and analysis ensure optimal uptime and results delivery

• Enhance the quality of results ꟷ Automate the transfer of all relevant sample information and results between your LIMS and CDS, eliminating error-prone manual steps. Review first-pass results within Sample Scheduler to reanalyze and resubmit results

• Meet data integrity standards ꟷ Provides the technical controls to securely view and assign samples for instrument utilization for laboratories that must follow the compliance guidelines of FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU Annex 11, GAMP5 as well as ISO/IEC 17025 and EPA’s 40 CFR Part 160.
