LIMS Governance: Configuring for the Global Supply Chain of the Future

Featured Speakers

Roddy Martin VP & General Manager AMR Research, Inc.

Jeff Walsh Quality Manager JohnsonDiversey, Inc.

For many organizations, the value of their current laboratory information management systems (LIMS) has run its course. As many companies look to harmonize their manufacturing processes around the world, ad-hoc functionality has been applied to disparate legacy LIMS in each facility, in an effort to achieve this aggressive goal. However, a divergence of processes has been formed among the different facilities, and organizations have fallen short of achieving their desired results for global operation efficiency and quality assurance. At the same time, information technology (IT) resources have been exhausted on managing numerous, cumbersome legacy LIMS systems, storing redundant data in multiple languages and inconsistent formats.

Keenly aware of the need for an integrated IT solution, offering enterprise-wide data accessibility and integrity from the laboratory through the production floor, many organizations are re-evaluating their current LIMS requirements.

Watch a 1-hour webinar on Roddy Martin, Vice President and General Manager, AMR Research, and Jeff Walsh, Quality Manager, JohnsonDiversey, focusing on a balanced approach to LIMS deployment – achieving global standards and scale with local configuration under controlled conditions.

Leveraging AMR’s  recent market research, Roddy Martin will discuss the current trends in LIMS governance and deployment, including the critical business, functional, and technical factors that companies should consider when selecting their replacement LIMS. Jeff Walsh will share insightful "use case" experience of what was involved when JohnsonDiversey recently began to replace its legacy LIMS. 

Participants will learn:

• How to select a "configurable"-off-the-shelf solution  to facilitate global standardization coupled with local customization, without modification;
• How to enable multi-site, multi-language deployment with a single solution;
• What LIMS architecture is required to support global operations, both insourced and outsourced;
• How to leverage functionality beyond traditional LIMS to streamline enterprise operations.

Professionals who would find this webinar of interest include:

• Operations and IT Executives
• Quality Control and Quality Assurance Leaders
• Laboratory Directors
