Achiever LIMS: Compliance by design
Transform compliance from an obligation into an operational advantage
Achiever LIMS helps laboratories operate with confidence in regulated environments, supporting GxP requirements, the Human Tissue Act (HTA), ISO standards and MHRA expectations across all sample workflows.
Rather than relying on disconnected SOPs, manual controls and retrospective reviews, Achiever LIMS embeds compliance directly into laboratory execution. Guided workflows, electronic signatures, complete traceability and controlled process management help ensure procedures are followed consistently while maintaining audit readiness at every stage.
The result is stronger governance, improved data integrity and reduced compliance risk.
Digital SOP execution turning procedures into controlled laboratory workflows
Transform standard operating procedures into guided digital workflows using Achiever LIMS’ intuitive drag-and-drop Laboratory Execution System (LES).
Instead of interpreting written instructions and manually recording activities, users are guided step-by-step through each process. Validation checks, conditional logic, data capture requirements and embedded electronic signatures can be incorporated directly into the workflow, helping to improve consistency and reduce the risk of error.
By digitising SOP execution, laboratories can ensure processes are performed in a controlled, repeatable and auditable manner while maintaining flexibility as requirements evolve.
Controlled process evolution to refine and improve processes with confidence
Laboratory processes rarely stand still. Achiever LIMS enables organisations to safely develop and improve workflows without compromising compliance or operational stability.
Draft process definitions allow changes to be created, reviewed and tested before deployment. Combined with comprehensive version history and rollback capabilities, laboratories can confidently refine processes while maintaining complete oversight of what changed, when and why.
This controlled approach to process management supports continuous improvement while helping maintain validated and compliant operations.
Achiever LIMS securely connecting laboratory data, processes and people
Reconstruct records exactly as they existed
Achiever LIMS provides complete visibility into the lifecycle of laboratory data through version-controlled records and comprehensive auditability.
Records can be viewed exactly as they existed at any point in time, allowing laboratories to reconstruct historical information for audits, investigations and regulatory inspections. Once captured, data remains protected from unauthorised modification while remaining fully searchable and accessible for reporting and review activities.
This provides a trusted foundation for maintaining data integrity and demonstrating compliance.
Capture approvals when they matter most
Electronic signatures can be embedded directly into digital workflows or automatically triggered by predefined data changes to support different business rules and regulatory requirements.
This ensures review and approval activities occur at the appropriate stage of a process without relying on manual intervention. Dedicated dashboards provide visibility into completed signature activities, helping laboratories maintain effective oversight and accountability.
The result is stronger process control and a clear, auditable chain of responsibility.
Protect sensitive laboratory information
Achiever LIMS incorporates multiple layers of security to protect laboratory, patient and research data.
Sensitive information is encrypted at source using AES-256 encryption, helping to safeguard data throughout its lifecycle while supporting organisational and regulatory requirements.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) enable organisations to define precisely who can access data, functionality and laboratory processes, ensuring users only have access to the information relevant to their responsibilities.
Centralise security and access control
Achiever LIMS integrates with enterprise identity providers including Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID and PingFederate to support modern authentication standards, including single sign-on (SSO) and centrally managed identity policies.
By leveraging existing corporate identity platforms, organisations can simplify user administration, strengthen security and maintain consistent access controls across laboratory applications and systems.
This provides a scalable and secure approach to managing access while reducing administrative overhead.
Trusted integration across the digital ecosystem
Achiever LIMS provides a flexible API framework and connectors that enable laboratories to connect instruments, applications and external platforms while maintaining control over how data is accessed, exchanged and managed.
Built around a modern RESTful and OData API framework, with OAuth 2.0 authentication and OpenAPI standards, Achiever LIMS enables secure, structured information exchange between laboratory instruments, Electronic Laboratory Notebooks (ELNs), databases, enterprise applications and external systems.
Its extensible architecture allows laboratories to introduce new data structures, workflows and integrations without disruptive platform redevelopment.
Its combined Hook and Data API architecture supports both process-driven interactions and structured data access. A library of preconfigured, extensible entities is exposed through an integrated, self-documenting OpenAPI (Swagger) interface.
Quality management and continuous compliance helping your lab move from reactive to proactive quality oversight
Maintaining compliance requires more than capturing audit trails. Achiever LIMS helps laboratories proactively monitor quality, identify risks and manage corrective actions through integrated auditing and quality management capabilities.
Audit findings, incidents, deviations and improvement opportunities can be managed within a controlled workflow, providing a structured approach to investigation, review and resolution.
By bringing auditing and quality management activities into a single platform, laboratories gain greater visibility, accountability and oversight across their operations.
Configurable Audit Programmes
Automatically and randomly select samples, and storage location records for review to support internal quality processes and help your laboratory verify ongoing compliance with established procedures
Integrated CAPA and Incidents
A centralised framework for managing corrective and preventive actions (CAPA), deviations, incidents, investigations and change requests enables issues to be logged, assigned, reviewed and tracked
