A Laboratory Information Management System
LIMS is a system that is built to support modern Laboratory operations. It provides the Laboratory with key features that enhances workflow, and allows the laboratory to store and access information on the system.
The Labmin Laboratory Information Management System checks the results from data captured, and automatically validates instances that comply with the needed specifications; it also reports (but does not validate) results that are out-of-specification. It can also release or retain lots and batches according to a laboratory’s specifications and calculations.
Supervisors can also schedule tasks, as well as request specific tests. These test requirements define the workload for the various lab stations. Instrumentation based data is loaded, processed through the calculation engine, and is then subjected to the Quality Control steps required for the assessment (based on certain standards, duplicates and blanks) to determine the validity of the results.

Why Use Labmin LIMS?
There are many reasons why you should choose Labmin LIMS. To mention just a few, our process flows are up to industry standard, we have state of the art security across our whole system ensuring your data is always protected and we have a development team that is continually improving the platform on a daily basis.
Below are videos explaining everything in more detail.
Information And Process Flow Management
In the context of mining laboratory information, Labmin assists the Laboratory and Production departments to manage samples through their analysis lifecycles. Laboratory users follow standardised processes based on sample preparation practices and standards. The use of certain instruments and other laboratory functions such as plate management and workflow automation allows the entering of samples directly into the Labmin Laboratory Information Management System, as well as tracking their progress through the different laboratory processes.
‘Sample tracking’ includes integrated barcoding, sample login, quoting, and invoicing. Labmin also allows real-time access to analytical results from virtually anywhere in the world. Users can view rich reports, which include features such as flagging parameters where results exceed defined limits, thereby easing the review of data. Furthermore, it enables users to graph results and create control charts for any entered data. Selecting data to plot is simplified by using criteria such as test, sample number, analyst, etc. Selecting the samples used to generate the control limits are just as easy.
An organization can configure its analytical parameters and calculations into Labmin LIMS. After sample registration, the module prints barcodes that are scanned to access and capture data during the analysis and reporting phases.
System And Backups
Labmin Security
Our servers are important to us, so we ensure the latest software and traceability is in place. We utilizes SIEM (Security Information and event Management) software for early detection and traceability.
Our LIMS follows GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations) by ensuring data is encrypted at rest on both disk (At rest) and database. We also allow for custom encryption policies on Personal information fields such as ID, passport etc to ensure POPI (Protection of Personal Information) compliance.
System And Backups
The LIMS system runs off of the following technologies:
- PHP Frame work for server side script
- JavaScript, CSS and HTML for client viewable portal
- PDF document management
- MySQL Database
In order to ensure all these elements are backed up and can be restored the following backup procedure is implemented
- System files, document and database are backed up for a rolling 5 days.
- Once a year the full system is backed up and set as accessible for a rollback/archive
- Should a restore be needed due to data loss or system rollback, we required 24 hours to extract your backup and restore it.
The system also keeps an audit trail of each SQL line run on the database that affects its data. i.e. ‘INSERT’,’UPDATE’,’DELETE’. Each audit contains date/time stamp and session details of the user logged in.
