Laboratory Information Management Software (LIMS) for Automotive - Automobile & Ground Transport

Confience eLIMS role-based security system can be integrated with Active Directory to limit users to only the information and functionality that is associated with their role within the laboratory to ensure the integrity of your data.

Product specifications, test methods and other information that is subject to re-versioning is managed within Confience eLIMS ensure data accuracy and product quality with a full audit trail of all changes that are made.

Samples can be manually created individually or in batches via PC or handheld device to accommodate the workflow of your operation.  Creation of samples can also be initiated via interface to 3rd party applications (e.g., ERP systems) to eliminate duplication of effort and user error.

Laboratory and product workflow status are automatically assigned by Confience eLIMS to guide samples to and through the laboratory.  Dashboard web parts allow instant access to this information to efficiently monitor lab work and your facility’s production process.

A variety of manual and automated results entry screens and tools allow results to be entered into Confience eLIMS in a manner that is natural to your work environment. All data entry provides instantaneous feedback that indicates the quality of the product being tested to allow rapid management decisions.

Multiple levels of peer and management review of test, sample and product information is provided to ensure that the release of information conforms with your organization’s policies.  If appropriate, release of information can be automated as long as all data conforms to product specification limits to add efficiency.

Confience eLIMS includes a powerful calculation engine that allow both simple and complex calculations to be performed based on the entry of raw data.  The use of automated and validated calculations simplifies the entry of result while ensuring that all calculations are accurately and consistently performed.

Documents that represent product specifications and testing methods can be attached to their associated Confience eLIMS records to provide instant access during the testing process.  In addition, Confience eLIMS includes a full document management system that can be used to manage all of your organization’s documents in a controlled manner.

Confience eLIMS includes an instrument/equipment management module that inventories all instruments to automatically schedule maintenance.  In addition, all calibration and control information is captured and provides on-going statistical information to ensure the integrity of data that is obtained.

Statistical evaluation of data using the Western Electric rules is immediately available at the time of results entry that allows process information to be evaluated to avoid production problems.  On-line SQC charts can be issued with the click of a button to efficiently monitor historical information.

A variety of site-specific reports are issued by passing information from any page or query to the report by the click of a single button.  Reports can be saved in a variety of formats (e.g., PDF, Excel, Word, etc.) to simplify the sharing of information to consumers and allows them to receive the data in the format that is germane to their needs.

A web page is available that allows external (non-lab) users to generate reports in a self-service environment to eliminate distraction and time required for the lab to produce reports.

Confience eLIMS menus and pages are inherently multi-lingual.  This allows users within multi-national laboratories to see the menus, pages, messages, etc. in local language for more comfortable use.  In addition, the software automatically offsets time zone differences and presents dates and numbers based on the culture of the local country adding to the ease of use.

Modifications made to all data is recorded within the Confience eLIMS audit trail which is essential for organizations that serve regulated industries.  The audit trail also allows you to investigate issues that arise when data is erroneously modified.

The flexibility of the Confience eLIMS data model allows for complete and accurate component tracing that can be specifically tailored to the production and/or assembly processes. The complete product life cycle including the production chain of all sub components can easily and neatly be monitored.

Inventory Management

Confience eLIMS provides transparency over the whole Lifecycle of Assets and Inventory Goods. This includes the origin purchasing process, replacement planning and approval.

Planning of resources and tasks is crucial to the successful management of complex production and assembly processes. Confience eLIMS features a highly customizable tool to automate this task as far as possible. Operational schedules are then generated automatically based on the time required for each individual step.
