the LIMS system
for your laboratory

Prolab.Q is a next generation LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System),created to meet the needs of small, medium and large test laboratories, in application configurations and heterogeneous technical sectors. The software is designed according to an innovative process logic, which guarantees the ideal versatility to support the laboratory in managing: the entire life cycle of the sample (from acceptance to the issue of the test report), an entire order (from the estimate to planning), a research project.
Prolab.Q fully supports accredited laboratories, operating in compliance with the UNI CEI EN ISO / IEC 17025, ISO 9001, has been built and tested to operate in accordance with the provisions of GLP and GMP and is in line with the FDA – CFR 21 PART 11.

Prolab.Q supports many different kind of laboratories:

Environmental analysis laboratories

Public and centralized laboratories

Agri-food laboratories

Material Test laboratories

Research institutes

Genomics

Certification organizations

Wine laboratories

Prolab.Q and laboratory activities

We know in detail the activities and processes that are carried out daily in the laboratory.
We have created a series of modules that can support every single phase in order to automate and optimize processes.
