Regulatory compliance, such as adherence to 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, is of utmost importance for companies operating in regulated industries. The US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) is renowned for its rigorous and unwavering stance on manufacturing standards. One prominent aspect of regulatory compliance is 21 CFR Part 11, which specifically applies to electronic records and signatures used in FDA-regulated industries. This regulation sets forth guidelines and requirements for ensuring the integrity, authenticity, and confidentiality of electronic data and signatures. Companies within t ..read more

In today’s dynamic world of scientific research and laboratory processes, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. As technology continues to advance, so does the need for efficient & effective management of laboratory operations. Today, most laboratories have shifted from using traditional paper-based systems to lab informatics solutions such as Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELN) & Scientific Data Management Systems (SDMS), to manage day to day lab processes while maintaining data integrity & compliances with a multitude of regulatory re ..read more

Although some labs may opt to record their experiments on paper, or have personnel keep track of ordering information manually, these methods are outdated and have several limitations. The practice of using paper notebooks and records is still prevalent in labs, with some labs finding it more comfortable due to all their procedures being developed around legacy systems such as excel sheets, PDFs & paper based lab notebooks. However, there are concerns about the reliability and longevity of these paper records. Two main reasons for this attitude are paper-driven procedures and a lack of wel ..read more

Although laboratory information management software (LIMS) automatically brings plenty of unique benefits to laboratories, like any technology, they become obsolete over time. Inevitably, a better version of it will be made available after multiple iterations, which will make it necessary to upgrade it in the future. Labs that choose to upgrade their LIMS periodically improve operational efficiency by streamlining lab processes, fostering collaboration, leveraging interoperability, lowering long-term costs, and providing a top-down approach to data transparency However, that is obviously ..read more

Digital transformation is a process that aims to improve an organization by implementing and practicing significant changes to its processes through combinations of information, computing, communication, and connecting technologies. Digital transformation only happens when the management recognizes the strategic importance of making profound organizational changes to the company that is customer-driven rather than technology-driven. Digital transformation has proved to be a hard nut to crack in recent times. It’s become the downfall for many who have gone about it poorly, as evident in McKinse ..read more
