An incremental LIMS consolidation programme to implement a single networked WinPath Enterprise across all sites and laboratories.

Rationalising three different LIMS into a single WinPath Enterprise solution for Barts Health NHS Trust

Barts Health NHS Trust had a mixed estate of LIMS across its sites. The Trust identified that management of multiple systems and hardware platforms was far from optimal, and the migration to a single platform across all sites would improve efficiency and workflow, and would enable all sites to benefit from enhanced WinPath Enterprise functionality.

How Covid will shape the coming year and help to change pathology forever

We consider how the tumultuous events of 2020 will impact on 2021, and how they will affect the company, the NHS, and the world of pathology for years to come.

What is the advantage of LIMS software?

A laboratory information management system, more commonly referred to as a LIMS, is a software system designed to help manage the workflow and daily operations in a laboratory. What exactly is a LIMS?  Although LIMS providers design their software a bit differently, at its core, the laboratory software system focuses on data management for specimen […]

Newborn screening and tissue typing services

Experts working for Severn Pathology at North Bristol NHS Trust have helped to create new modules for the WinPath Enterprise laboratory information system to support the delivery of the National Newborn Blood Spot Screening Programme and donor-recipient matching for organ donation.

CliniSys and Pathology after the Pandemic

We reflect on some of the profound changes that the novel coronavirus has brought to CliniSys, to healthcare, and to pathology, and how they are likely to play out in a post-Covid future.

Why LIMS is crucial to achieving ISO 15189 accreditation

Gaining ISO 15189 accreditation is just the start of the hard work, says Tony Oliver, Programme Manager and laboratory accreditation expert at CliniSys. The ongoing accreditation process is a challenge that involves everyone in the lab, with LIMS at its heart.

Experience More from Your LIMS Vendor

Selecting your laboratory information management system (LIMS) is one of the most crucial decisions you will make for your lab and your company. 

What genomic laboratory hubs can learn from pathology networks; why is the first lesson ‘implement a single LIMS?’

What can the mobilising genomics laboratory hubs learn from the more advanced pathology networks? CliniSys marketing manager Matthew Fouracre put the question to programme manager Tony Oliver and genomics consultant Steve Abbs, who agreed the first lesson would be: implement a single laboratory information system to drive standardisation.

Standardisation in clinical genomic testing

One of the major drivers for forming genomic laboratory hubs is to ensure quality at scale and equitable testing, by encouraging greater standardisation. However, CliniSys genomics consultant Steve Abbs argues that hubs in themselves will struggle to achieve this, and other drivers and facilitators are needed – not least a single LIMS.
