Manage your entire Quality Control lab testing process, from internal test request to Certificate of Analysis, using Lockbox LIMS. Execute testing protocols, generate COAs, and manage instrumentation calibration using the Lockbox LIMS integrated manufacturing toolkit.
Comply with global regulatory requirements using Lockbox’s robust platform level compliance tools including audit trails, electronic signature, and change control.
From your first use of raw materials through the QC of samples, the Lockbox laboratory information system has you covered.
Lockbox LIMS handles every aspect of your sample’s lifecycle, from protocols to reports and storage.
A Quality Control Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) is software that helps manufacturers manage quality testing, sample tracking, laboratory workflows, and test results. Lockbox LIMS centralizes QC processes in a single, configurable platform, helping laboratories improve efficiency, data integrity, and traceability.
Lockbox LIMS supports the full testing lifecycle in a single system — raw material inspections, in-process quality checks, environmental monitoring, stability testing, and finished product testing — from sample receipt through final approval.
Yes. Once results are approved, Lockbox LIMS automatically generates configurable Certificates of Analysis, pulling directly from approved laboratory data. This cuts down on manual report-building while keeping COA formatting and content consistent.
Sample login, test assignments, protocol execution, result review, approvals, notifications, and reporting can all be automated — reducing manual handoffs and freeing up analysts for higher-value work.
Every sample is tracked through its full lifecycle with barcode scanning, chain-of-custody records, audit trails, and complete sample history — giving labs full visibility from receipt through testing, approval, storage, and disposal. Learn more about sample tracking in Lockbox LIMS.
Yes. Configurable audit trails, electronic signatures, role-based security, and electronic records are built into the platform to help laboratories meet GMP workflows and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements. See our full compliance and security overview for details.
Out-of-specification (OOS) and out-of-trend (OOT) results are automatically flagged for review based on configurable analyte thresholds. When paired with Lockbox QMS, labs can launch quality events, investigations, CAPAs, and deviations directly from the flagged data — no re-keying required.
Yes. Published APIs connect Lockbox LIMS to laboratory instruments, ERP systems, and third-party applications, enabling automated data collection and eliminating manual transcription. Explore instrument management and integrations.
Yes. Reagents, standards, consumables, lot numbers, expiration dates, and quantities are all tracked in the system, helping ensure testing materials stay available and traceable. See inventory management capabilities.
Configurable reports and dashboards give real-time visibility into testing status, lab performance, turnaround times, sample volumes, and quality metrics — so QC managers can spot bottlenecks before they become backlogs.
Implementation timelines vary based on lab complexity and configuration needs, but Third Wave Analytics works with your team to define a project plan and go-live timeline during onboarding — not a one-size-fits-all rollout.
