Enhancing your Lab Informatics Systems (LIMS/ELN) through Lean Lab Principles
Description:
Manufacturers use lean techniques to improve quality, productivity, and cycle time. QC labs can apply the same methods to realize similar benefits, especially if lab informatics tools like LIMS or ELN are used. Leaning a lab in concert with such systems improves performance, minimizes paper, facilitates compliance, and reduces operating costs with less expense than purchasing new tools.
This course explains proven lean lab principles and covers how to identify, prioritize, and realize lean opportunities. The course covers practices and methodologies for planning as well as managing and executing a lean project using lab informatics tools.
