Laboratory Quality Systems : Genial Genetics

Laboratory quality systems, in particular electronic laboratory quality systems are becoming an increasingly important aspect of many healthcare and research organisations. iPassport QMS is a web based electronic Laboratory Quality System, providing a useful tool to manage and organise Standard Operating Procedures and Policies efficiently within a complete quality management system. Reviews for important documents can be set within the system, with tasks emailed to those responsible for the review process. This streamlines management, ensuring all information is up to date for key staff members.

All aspects of the SOP or procedure can be managed within the iPassport laboratory quality system. For example, reagent records, equipment records, materials records, and training records can all be managed within one central laboratory quality system, and can then be linked to relevant standard operating procedures. Incidents can be managed on the system, and linked to subsequent training events. All quality processes can be fully monitored and tasked onto the appropriate person, ensuring all laboratory staff are responsible for quality in their day to day duties.

Access to information has never been easier, with our Laboratory Quality system information can be retrieved at the touch of a button. A staff member can quickly access a procedure for reagent preparation as a handy quick reference ensuring proper handling, preparation and precaution measures are in place at all times.

It is important that all information relating to quality management in the laboratory is managed effectively as accreditation bodies evaluate all aspects of quality management and quality systems when inspecting the laboratory. Through deployment of a Laboratory quality system such as iPassport QMS, you are able to more effectively and efficiently provide up to date, accurate information to staff and relevant accreditation bodies.
