Enormous volumes of data flow through Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) each day. Orders are received, samples are tracked, results are entered and verified and reports are sent back to the customers. How do laboratories harness the information generated for value-added delivery? Lab databases can be considered a repository of established knowledge and a source for new knowledge from which to build a framework for business intelligence and decision making.
Traditionally, if a laboratory manager wanted to create a specific new productivity report, they had to ask their IT department to pull together the data and create the desired report. In recent years, laboratory informatics companies are crafting products specifically designed to deliver Business Intelligence to their customers and clients. Business Intelligence (BI) is a set of computer-based tools that provide organized, well structured and understandable views of laboratory operational and financial data.
BI can greatly assist management to better understand their laboratory operations and make well founded, prudent decisions to meet laboratory objectives. Best of all, real-time dashboard reports can often be delivered directly to the manager’s desktop, iPad, or mobile device, helping her/him to make better decisions and improve processes.
The analytical laboratory is becoming increasingly complex. Globalization and consolidation drive the need to standardize and optimize to maximize productivity and lower costs. Optimization opportunities exist but many go unrealized, overlooked, or untouched because the data is difficult to access, difficult to assemble, or difficult to interpret.
Interactive visualizations are a powerful approach for data exploration. Labsols LBI provides standard and custom visualizations with modern technology visualization tools. A suite of defined dashboards allows the laboratory operations people at different departments to effectively explore the data to uncover key insights.
Laboratory Business Intelligence helps to detect silent or hidden information or non-plausible results from vast amounts of research data, thus avoiding biases in information handling. Laboratory Intelligence offers a visual, interactive and associative way to handle and analyze masses of information.
Data analytics and reporting has previously been very IT or developer driven. Ad-hoc data search, change of time scales, perspectives and granularities of the data should be on the fingertips of laboratory users. Lab Business Intelligence solutions are aimed for the end users, who benefit from the data most, removing the total reliance on IT personnel in data analytics.
When a new LIMS is taken into use, a need often emerges to create trends and statistics from the previously collected data that still remains in the old system. Or, sometimes data needs to be combined from multiple systems. Lab Business Intelligence provides solutions for utilizing scattered data in multiple systems, whether old or new, so that data can be analyzed most efficiently
The Manager Dashboard is a quick overview of all current orders. It also shows detailed comparison with historical data. This particular dashboard help to under order numbers of a particular year, month, week, day and even hour and minutes.

Although it can be easily forgotten about, it remains one of the single most effective ways to reduce costs and improve productivity.
No matter the size of your lab, controlling inventory is one of the most important things you can do to make everything run smoothly. Monitoring consumable supplies, reagents, lab equipment, and instruments can be a big task. But doing so efficiently will increase productivity and reduce costs. To help, the Labsols teams have put together this handy KPI to lab inventory management.
Over the past few years, nearly every laboratory manager has been faced with the seemingly contradictory demands from management to shrink budgets and from clients to increase services. Is it possible for a lab manager to resolve this contradiction to meet both performance expectations? The solution may be the same one that has driven economic expansion for years–increase productivity.
If you're not measuring your lab customer service, how will you judge the success of your actions? If you're serious about improving customer service, you need to track your CS KPI.
Labsols customer service KPI is a performance measurement that is used by lab customer service teams and by the lab customer support management to monitor, visualize, analyze and optimize customer relations by taking advantage of an advanced 360-degree customer view.
This dashboard make sure laboratory professionals, and administrators work together to ensure that laboratory tests and results provide real lab benefit to customers while en suring that laboratory testing is both cost-effective and appropriately used. In short, it’s confirming the right test, at the right time, for the right customer, and at the right cost.
The goal of Utilization Dashboard is to maintain or improve the quality of care without increasing the cost of laboratory testing.
