Course Description
Implementing Lab Informatics (LIMS, ELN, LES, CDS, SDMS, etc.) is a complex undertaking, especially if you haven’t done it before. While the basics (planning, resourcing, budgeting, etc.) of a successful implementation are known to most, there are other critical success factors that when addressed can dramatically improve your chances of success. Most of these critical successful factors remain unknown to all but the most seasoned of Lab Informatics implementation experts.
These additional critical success factors have been identified by CSols through the implementation of a large number lab informatics projects over the last 15 years. They are the secrets to a successful LIMS implementation. In this course we will expose these secrets.
The first part of this course will provide a rapid review of implementation basics. The remainder of the course will focus on the secrets of successful lab informatics implementation.
