Prove your system meets regulatory requirements using LIMS Validation.

What is LIMS validation?

Typical steps to LIMS validation

There are many aspects to LIMS validation. A detailed User Requirements Specification (URS) is the critical foundation stone because companies must demonstrate that their LIMS fulfills these requirements.

A Functional Specification (FS) is developed to match the URS and defines the LIMS functionality. Other critical steps towards LIMS validation include:

  • Creating a System Validation Plan
  • Verifying adherence to 21CFR Part 11
  • Completing a Risk Assessment
  • Installation Qualification (IQ) – demonstrates correct installation of the LIMS
  • Operation Qualification (OQ) – proves the LIMS operates as expected
  • Performance Qualification (PQ) – confirms the performance of the LIMS in a customer environment with customer data

Once these steps are successfully completed a final LIMS Validation Report is created and signed-off that captures the process and the results.
