Having this data available also allows the laboratory to evaluate maintenance costs and instrument reliability. Such a system will also keep a history of all maintenance and calibration events for audit purposes and provide reminders of pending calibration and maintenance tasks. In support of this, a LIMS can be used to record the operational status of each piece of equipment to prevent work being allocated to an instrument that is out of calibration or maintenance. For example, laboratory workload can be managed through calendar scheduling of testing, based on resource availability. Many other benefits are available from a fully functioning LIMS.
