How QLIMS supports the medicinal cannabis process

How QLIMS supports the medicinal cannabis process

As the cannabis testing industry grows more and more, so does the need for greater efficiency relating to results, reports, regulatory compliance and the many other aspects of data management.

Here we will explain to you how our solution, QLIMS, supports companies involved in each part of the chain and the items that medicinal cannabis companies should consider when selecting a LIMS and software for quality control.

For simplicity we have grouped the below info-graphic into 3 key functional areas:
  • Cultivation
  • Research & Quality Control
  • Manufacturing
Cultivation

The is relevant for groups who are growing the plants for medicinal use including harvesting of the plant material. 

The key requirement is to ensure you are recording each stage of the process, performing the correct tests and capturing the associated data in accordance to the licenses.  

Research & Quality Control

This is essentially for groups who are researching the development of new & improved medical cannabis strains and formulations for medical-grade products.

The formulation data and analytical reports are critical in this phase. 

Integration to scientific instruments is enabled to ensure accuracy and efficiency.

Manufacturing

QLIMS manages the associated testing required as part of the production/manufacture of medicinal cannabis products and ensures specifications are met.

The subsidiary data including COAs required for accreditation is critical to be captured.





LIMS is the central app for pretty much all laboratories and serves to receive and track samples and their results as well as generate reports, COAs and labels. 

By being modular, tracking the subsidiary and allowing for integration to any other systems involved in a medicinal cannabis facility, a professional LIMS such as QLIMS acts as an extension to your staff's scientific skills and forms a critical part of the supply chain.
