Pharmaceutical LIMS

A pharma LIMS for every step of drug discovery, development, and manufacturing

Critical to the successful manufacturing of a drug is the quality and integrity of the research and development studies that came before it. Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) ensure that data is captured, tracked, and maintained throughout the entirety of your drug discovery, development, bioanalytical, and manufacturing processes. Thermo Fisher Scientific is uniquely positioned to support your business from initial research studies, to bioanalytical development, product manufacturing, and clinical trial analysis.

LIMS software in pharmaceutical labs have different requirements depending on the specifications of the lab. Drug discovery and development requires organizations to be agile in managing diverse types and volumes of data. LIMS for pharma R&D labs require more flexibility, while LIMS for pharma QA/QC labs require a strict adherence to SOPs and regulatory compliance. Pharma LIMS software available from Thermo Fisher are designed to meet the needs of your pharma lab. Selecting the right informatics capabilities to drive your unique drug R&D pipeline can shorten research cycles, and boost your program’s efficiency. Accordingly, our LIMS for pharmaceutical labs have been designed with these different lab environments in mind. Whether you’re developing drug candidates, synthesizing small molecule scaffolds, mutating cell lines to create new biologics, or in the process of bioanalytical studies or manufacturing, we have LIMS solutions tailored to your needs.

Research and development LIMS

It can be a challenge to find a laboratory informatics solution that can support the many different scientific workflows that exist within pharmaceutical research and development. Utilizing a LIMS throughout research and development studies helps to ensure that your valuable intellectual property is documented and maintained in a safe and secure location. Thermo Fisher offers a LIMS solution that can provide capabilities for sample and inventory management, sample preparation and analysis, instrument and software integration, and workload management across many different types of R&D workflows, such as molecular biology, genomics, biobanking, purification, and formulation.

Bioanalysis LIMS

Thermo Fisher offers a LIMS solution specifically built and designed to support the bioanalytical workflow. The informatics software can support your bioanalysis studies from method development and validation through study close out and final reporting, including integrations with laboratory software and instrumentation. The software helps to ensure that studies are conducted according to industry regulations including 21CFR58 (GLPs) and 21CFR11. Thermo Fisher’s LIMS solution for bioanalysis is relied on by many of the top pharmaceutical and contract research organizations around the world.

Process development and manufacturing LIMS

The challenges in pharmaceutical process development, quality control, and manufacturing lie mainly in achieving and maintaining compliance to regulations such as FDA 21 CFR Part 11, ISO 17025 and GxP, and in ensuring and demonstrating data integrity. A complete, connected laboratory solution comprising LIMS, LES (Laboratory Execution System) and SDMS (Scientific Data Management System) drives compliance and data integrity by clearly showing the route of data throughout all processes. Demonstrate process integrity through step-by-step electronic SOPs in LES connecting directly to a LIMS.

Instrument and system integration

Flexible integration and data visualization capabilities are the foundation of the connected laboratory. Building a laboratory ecosystem that connects people, instruments, consumables, and software requires the right capabilities and tools. Thermo Fisher combines a complete suite of integration tools with expertise in connectivity, data visualization, e-commerce, services, and infrastructure, helping you uncover the hidden value of your data.  

Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) capabilities

Thermo Scientific Core ELN software is a flexible electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) for capturing, analyzing, managing, and sharing vital scientific data and information. Quickly and easily build notebooks, entries, and sections to meet the needs of your laboratory. Data can be assembled into an experiment from external data systems, spreadsheets, presentations, and documents. Collaborating and sharing data is made easy by utilizing Core ELN software.
