The following information is published in a flyer circulated by the Royal
Society of Chemistry. The book describes the strategy, planning, resources
and activities needed to integrate LIMS and its supporting technologies
into an organization. It covers all aspects of implementation and management
and has the benefit of not being product specific. This book will not date
as it is not restricted to a particular software product, hardware platform,
or technical automation approach. Instead it deals with the issues, expertise,
organization and resources that contribute to the successful implementation
of a LIMS.
The author has wide experience with automated laboratory systems in the
chemical, pharmaceutical, environmental and biotechnology industries, and
for the past 15 years has been intimately involved in every aspect of LIMS
implementation, including justification, system selection, installation,
project management, developing, training, validation, performance optimization
and maintenance.
The book contains numerous illustrations and tables to highlight concisely
the major points and concepts discussed in each chapter. The book is essential
reading for laboratory, information systems and project managers responsible
for the implementation of LIMS and, as it does not require any previous
knowledge of computers or laboratory information management systems, is
easily accessible to all.
