Consumer Packaged Goods LIMS

One end-to-end lab informatics solution for CPG R&D through Manufacturing

Harmonize data across multiple labs, locations, and product lines to speed time-to-market

Whether your company sells one product line or thousands of products in diverse consumer categories, time-to-market is likely a top concern for you. Keeping pace with evolving consumer tastes and market trends across a global landscape requires continuous innovation and R&D investment. That requires data – both to improve your products and your processes.

A modern laboratory informatics platform, including laboratory information management system (LIMS), electronic laboratory notebook (ELN), laboratory execution system (LES), scientific data management system (SDMS), and advanced analytics, delivers the data management and analysis capabilities needed by today’s Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) leaders.

The LabVantage LIMS platform, available via SaaS or on-premises deployment, helps you to effectively manage end-to-end processes, from the research and product development stage to quality control during manufacturing, shelf-life testing, monitoring consumables, and scheduling sample testing of raw material lots, in-process lots, and finished good lots. One system does it all, supporting visibility and collaboration among team members—now and in the future as you update your product line.   

Replacing paper-bound notebooks, spreadsheets, and homegrown systems, our LIMS and embedded LES enhances lab productivity so you can accomplish more, faster. Plus, the electronic data is now searchable and sortable, allowing predictive analytics to identify trends and project resolution of batch or quality control issues. Your company can be on top of fast-changing trends, conserve resources, and take advantage of modern digital technologies and configurable infrastructure to stay ahead of your competition.
