One of the major
challenges faced by laboratories is the ability to directly
and easily communicate with customers and/or collaborators through a secure digital channel. The
hassle of putting through paper submissions, consistently contacting the
laboratories regarding results associated with sample submissions puts a dent
on the customer experience.
Keeping these issues
in mind, the team at OnQ Software have used their expertise to create an
innovative and easy-to-use Customer
Portal. This solution ensures a hassle-free experience for the laboratory while keeping the
customer happy.
How does it work?
Each client is
provided with secured and restricted access to the portal, seeing only what
they need to see/what is allowed by the lab. As the customer portal is directly linked up with the QLIMS
database used by the laboratory, once the samples are submitted through the
portal they turn up in QLIMS ready to be received, tested and the results
churned out. Once the testing has been competed by the lab, the staff in charge can then directly fill in the results or attach a report which when published is
automatically accessible to the customer on a read-only basis.
The customer/submitter/clinician/collaborator also has a history of their reports which further takes a load off the laboratory in terms of answering requests for historical data.

The results?
According to Anne-Marie Curle, Food Technologist and QC Management at Baiada Poultry (one of our long term customers), "In the old world we received hundreds of handwritten QA testing submissions every week, which needed to be manually entered into our database. Now our processing plants are able to book their submissions directly into the QLIMS system. That has freed up a full time staff member to be more hands on, on the bench, rather than tied up with paperwork".

The QLIMS Customer
Portal reduces paperwork, consumes less time, ensures security, traceability
and provides a central portal for a customer and Laboratory to formally
interact with each other.
