Autoscribe will be demonstrating the flexibility and scalability offered by its flagship Matrix Gemini LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) at the Lab Innovations 2014 exhibition.

Matrix Gemini is much more than an easily configurable LIMS for applications in a wide variety of laboratories including, food, pharmaceutical, chemicals, veterinary, healthcare, and environmental information management systems. It also provides a systematic quality management resource for tracking, storage, auditing and reporting of data across all segments of a business or company.

The unique ‘OneTime configuration tools’ allow Matrix Gemini to be configured without the use of custom programming or esoteric basic scripting tools. These easy to use configuration tools allow free choice of screens, workflows and menu designs, customer specific tables/modules, multiple screens for the same function, multiple sample numbering systems and much more.

With a web browser user interface provided as standard as well as the desktop user interface, Matrix Gemini can be deployed globally via Citrix or the Web. From single user, single PC systems to multiple concurrent users connected via multiple sites, Matrix Gemini is equally suitable for both global organisations and small individual laboratories.

Matrix Gemini is designed for use in both highly regulated and unregulated laboratories. It has the tools and design to help with compliance to cGLP and cGMP and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 in pharmaceutical companies, NELAC and ISO 17025 in water testing laboratories or food testing or NAMAS / UKAS regulations. Matrix products are developed and produced in an ISO 9001:2008 certified environment with full documentation available.

The Matrix Gemini Quality Management software suite provides companies or businesses with easy management of key processes to ensure their relevance in the business model. This comprehensive business data management capability facilitates compliance with ISO 9001 (2008) and ISO/TS 16949 (2002) for regulated companies to reduce risk, liability and costs.

Autoscribe provides a unique ‘future proofing’ product support service for its Matrix family of LIMS. The Matrix product line has been developed to specifically ensure backwards compatibility and easy upgrades for existing customers, meaning that if customers take out a support and maintenance contract they are getting a ‘LIMS for life’ – there are no hidden additional costs for major upgrades.

Many Matrix users have migrated successfully through successive generations of the software and enjoy all the benefits of the latest version, yet can still access information that was entered in earlier versions. Some customers have migrated through 5 generations of Matrix over a period of 20 years.

Autoscribe’s policy of continually improving its software, and supporting customers with these developments, means that existing customers with a support and maintenance contract would not need to buy a completely new system ever again. This built-in future proofing leads to longer operational life, lower cost of ownership and excellent return on investment. Most importantly, it gives customers peace of mind that their LIMS software will always be maintained to the very latest functionality.
