LIMS

LabVantage LIMS, delivered by Nordic leader Software Point, is described as the most modern, flexible, and intelligent laboratory information management system (LIMS) on the market. The platform serves as a comprehensive lab informatics suite — combining LIMS, Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN), Laboratory Execution System (LES), Scientific Data Management System (SDMS), and AI-powered data analytics — making it the effective ERP for any laboratory. It is designed for Quality Control, Research and Development, and Analytical Service laboratories across virtually any industry.

Software Point brings over 30 years of LIMS industry experience and a team of more than 100 experts with combined IT and laboratory knowledge, serving hundreds of Nordic customers. LabVantage LIMS is deployed globally across more than 1,500 customer sites, and is available as SaaS, hosted, or on-premise, with both perpetual and subscription licensing models.

Automation and Instrument Integration

• LabVantage Connect is a platform-independent integration tool enabling automated result retrieval from laboratory instruments directly into LIMS
• Supports thousands of instrument connections across approximately 800 different instrument models, including simple instruments (balances, pH meters), run-sequence instruments (chromatographs, ICP), instrument networks (Empower, OpenLAB, LabEX), and robotic systems
• Complete instrument raw data and metadata can be saved traceably alongside structured LIMS results, supporting ALCOA+ data integrity requirements
• Automates tedious and time-consuming laboratory processes, speeding up results lead-time, increasing throughput, and freeing laboratory staff from manual tasks

System Integration and Data Ecosystem

• Integrates with any external business system including ERP, MES, DMS, and CRM via LabVantage's documented REST-API
• Certified SAP QM interface enabling efficient integration from SAP QM Inspection Lots and Materials to LabVantage Batches and Products
• Supports digital method execution via LES and organisation-wide data flow automation
• Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) enables capture, sharing, and refinement of research data within the platform, eliminating reliance on printouts, emails, and scattered files

Deployment and Technology

• Available as SaaS (hosted on AWS in the EU), eliminating upfront infrastructure investment while retaining flexibility, security, and scalability
• Can also be deployed on-premise within existing IT environments (physical or virtual, owned or outsourced) or via a local hosting partner
• Built on Java EE, supporting application servers from IBM, Oracle, and Red Hat, and databases from Oracle and Microsoft
• Simplified implementation and upgrade processes due to zero-footprint, browser-based architecture
• Pre-packaged accelerators and rich standard configuration options available to meet demanding or specialised LIMS requirements

Software Point's customer network spans hundreds of Nordic organisations, and LabVantage LIMS customers are invited to participate in annual global customer meetings to network and share best practices. The platform is continuously developed to address future laboratory needs including touchless method execution, prescriptive data analysis, and digitally native laboratory environments.
