Thermo Electron Corporation announces Darwin LIMS, the latest evolution in commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) laboratory information management systems for pharmaceutical manufacturing R and D and QA/QC
The embedded charting and trending for product stability testing allows for real-time data review and rapid reporting.
Darwin 1.1 has also been optimised to operate on the Oracle 10g platform.
By incorporating SAP and additional systems interfacing capabilities, as well as batch and product management capabilities, customers are better prepared to integrate Darwin into their global enterprise landscape.
"Since its launch in December 2005, Darwin has enjoyed a tremendously positive reaction," said Dave Champagne, vice president and general manager of the Thermo informatics business, citing honourable mentions by the Pittcon Editor's Award and Instrument Business Outlook.
"Our goal with Darwin has been to deliver as much domain-specific out-of-the-box functionality to our customers as possible.
Version 1.1 addresses some critical needs and clearly positions Darwin as the definitive solution for the pharmaceutical industry.
As a COTS solution, Darwin lowers the cost, risk and time associated with implementation, training, validation, maintenance and upgrades of traditional LIMS".
Thermo is able to assist customers with migration to Darwin 1.1 using Migration Agent, a combination of professional services and software that reduces risk and overcomes business challenges when migrating.
Migration Agent employs services personnel for project management and implementation, as well as an extract, transform and load (ETL) tool that has been configured specifically for Darwin 1.1. Request a free brochure from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Informatics) ...
