Overview

The System Interface Module (SIM) is a software solution developed by H&A Scientific that is designed to improve the importing and exporting of data, with a particular focus on Lab Work Requests (LWRs). SIM enables seamless data exchange with SLIM, H&A Scientific's stability study management platform, using an XML format — eliminating the need to manually hand-key historical or operational data.

SIM is well-suited for laboratory supervisors and stability managers who need programmatic access to lab data, product information, and workflow statuses. The module is backed by H&A Scientific's industry-leading product support team, with assistance, custom programming, and consulting available at an hourly rate, including discounts for high-volume projects.

Core Data Import and Export Capabilities

  • Retrieve Lab Work Request (LWR) information from SLIM and update results information for tests on an LWR
  • Retrieve product information from SLIM as well as create or update product records
  • Export and import data using a structured XML format

Helper Functions for Laboratory Supervisors and Stability Managers

  • Query the system for all accessible labs
  • Retrieve all LWR statuses
  • Access all change controls
  • Look up all alternate specification country tags
  • Query for all users within the system

LWR Workflow Management

  • Mark Lab Work Requests as pulled, verified, or approved directly through the module

SIM is part of H&A Scientific's broader suite of life sciences software tools, which includes SLIM for stability study management, SLIMStat for shelf-life projection, and the SLIM Report Generator for validated, FDA-submission-ready stability reports. The entire product suite is designed to maintain compliance with FDA requirements and GAMP guidelines.
