London-based Two Fold Software Limited, has added specialist application software to support the requirements of commercial contract laboratories. 

Two Fold Software's easy-to-use Qualoupe LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) solution has been tailored to deliver significant benefits to contract laboratories.  

The new software enhancement has been developed to enable fast and accurate production of invoices thereby allowing contract laboratories to optimise their cash flow and to efficiently control the recording and storage of results. This enables the contract laboratory to attain and maintain UKAS accreditation, whilst also managing the quality of services being offered to customers.   

The new Qualoupe LIMS solution gives contract laboratories a competitive edge by featuring flexible reporting capabilities which enable customer specific reports and formats that provide trending and graphical analysis of customer data.  Customised data is a key factor in helping a contract laboratory to extend its services and build closer relationships with its clients. 

The software enhancements also enable customers to submit samples remotely online which saves contract laboratory time and allows the customer the benefit of a faster service by also giving them remote access to sample results if required. 

Many of the new software enhancements have been introduced to help a contract laboratory achieve significant time savings and to offer a faster, more accurate, efficient service without needing to increase staff levels to accommodate additional

customers or new value added services.  The software also enables a contract laboratory to improve competitiveness and profitability by offering more flexible pricing options.  

The easy-to-use Qualoupe LIMS solution was developed to drive major productivity gains, improved quality management and reporting flexibility while greatly simplifying LIMS use and very significantly lowering running costs.

The Qualoupe LIMS features an intuitive, configurable user interface designed to enhance the user experience, revolutionise work flow and remove the complexity of running a LIMS.  

Qualoupe offers full audit trails and helps to simplify compliance with UKAS, FDA, ISO 17025, MRC, GLP and GMP.  The system's software is optimised to share data across and between an organisation's sites and supports both manual and automated data capture.
