Sample workflow engine

The sample workflow engine from navify Lab Operations integrates the entire sample flow, from pre- to post-analytics on a single lab software solution. It is similar to a GPS system, that determines the optimal sample route based on a real-time view of the following:

  • Test menu

  • Downtime

  • Calibration

  • Volume

  • QC issue

  • HIL samples

  • Maintenance

  • Time of day

Work area concept and lean validation

The work area concept allows you to personalize your workspace and have all relevant information in one place. It enables you to customize the monitoring screens for each testing area by user, to allow efficiency and focus on the task at hand. Using the navify Lab Operations validation engine you can create unique validation criteria in order to auto-validate samples that do not require manual attention, independent of the work area discipline and/or location.

Quality control

Have confidence in the results generated from your solution with reduced manual entry, through auto-lot creation and updates. With navify Lab Operations, you’re able to plan all of your analyzer’s QC needs in one place. Additionally, assay performance can be monitored, to make sure that no problems are emerging in between QC runs. The system uses patient results for statistical QC to monitor assay performance in real-time and helps ensure results can be relied on.
