 New LIMS at
California Animal Health Lab
Hollywood, Florida (August 8, 2005) — STARLIMS Corporation, a
leading global provider of Laboratory Information Management
Systems, (LIMS), today announced that STARLIMS will be supporting
the goal of the California Animal Health and Food Safety Labs (CAHFS)
at the University of California, Davis, of supplying the State of
California with quality diagnostic laboratory assistance through
implementation of a new LIMS system.
The STARLIMS implementation
at CAHFS will cover 200 users across 5 different sites. The
implementation will include workflow automation for some 450 tests
that are performed within CAHFS and guarantee the capability for up
to 150 test assignments outside the laboratories. The new LIMS
system will address key IT needs with standards based messaging (PHIN-MS,
HL7) and adequate standardization of data (LOINC, SNOMED).
“CAHFS selected STARLIMS
because of its adaptability to operate in complex multi-species,
multi-discipline environments,” said Jay Ross, IT Manager at CAHFS,
UC Davis. “STARLIMS fulfills our automation requirements, enables
bar-coding and provides flexibility in the overall system
architecture. It also comprises integrated messaging capabilities
and instrument integration features. We project significant
efficiencies to be gained throughout our organization by using
STARLIMS.”
The selection of STARLIMS
for full deployment throughout CAHFS follows the experience gained
by the two organizations during the initial implementation of
STARLIMS at CAHFS aimed at automating sample analysis of Bovine
Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). The BSE project took place in June
2004, and introduced rapid solutions for data integration using XML
and comprehensive barcode technologies, all of which have been
handled seamlessly by STARLIMS.
“We are pleased to expand
our relationship with CAHFS. This new enterprise wide deployment of
STARLIMS will leverage our past success and existing joint project
team to fully meet the institutions goals for automation and
standardization,” commented Jeff Ferguson, Chief Operating Officer
at STARLIMS Corporation.
