For labs that have a LIMS without SDMS capability or organizations without a LIMS, STARLIMS standalone SDMS can support the rigorous documentation needs that are lacking.

Gain efficiencies with a single repository for scientific data. The scientific data management system (SDMS) seamlessly integrates with STARLIMS to help manage instrument data and documents generated in the laboratory.

SDMS Capabilities

SDMS acts as a central repository for all of your lab’s valuable document and data files. Our scientific data management solution makes it easy for users to access and share information across the organization. 

Eliminate Disparate Data Sources

Manage a variety of documents with the SDMS. Organize standard operation procedures (SOPs) and certificates of analysis, and pull in unstructured data from HPLCs, GCs and other instruments.

Extract Valuable Scientific Data

Parsing and recognition technology transforms a variety of unstructured documents or files into searchable structured information. Keywords, values, graphs and data tables are pulled from all files to enable easy search later. 

Automate File Processing

The SDMS Grabber monitors designated locations and automatically picks up and processes new files. File approval workflows can automatically be kicked off and scientific data can be routed to the appropriate location based on file type.

Reduce Cycle Times

Automate the approval process of SOPs, test methods, and product specifications by creating custom workflows that ensure documents are reviewed and approved by the right people.

Ensure Compliance

SDMS is designed to be 21 CFR Part 11 compliant, which includes record creation, audit trails, electronic signatures, data security and data storage in the original format. Modify the Scientific Data Management System to comply with internal data retention, archiving, and approval process rules.

Promote Collaboration

Access document information from a web browser from virtually anywhere in the world. Search by keyword, metadata, and free text to find any record or result.

Integrated Solution Suite

SDMS is built on the same advanced technology as our LIMS and is a key component of the STARLIMS Unified Solution. With our powerful LIMS solution at its core, you can also choose to integrate our ELN or enrich operations with Advanced Analytics and Mobile features.

Standalone SDMS

We are now offering a standalone version of the STARLIMS Scientific Data Management System (SDMS) to help clients achieve compliance with the data integrity expectations of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as well as other regulatory authorities.

Who Would Benefit From STARLIMS Standalone SDMS?

  • Standalone SDMS can fill the gap for organizations that already invested in an existing LIMS that is lacking the Scientific Data Management System component
  • Organizations without a LIMS can utilize the standalone SDMS to better meet many of the requirements stated in 21 CFR Parts 211 and 212 for data integrity

What Customers Say

“The software we used before was based on Microsoft Access. With all the limitations it entailed, the main problem we used to face was it was impossible to interface it with other software (SAP, CRM, etc.).”

Jaime Maldonado

Responsible for the laboratory, HIPRA

“I like that it is user friendly. I like the way everyone I talked to was professional. I also enjoy that it is an amazon “STARLIMS centrally manages samples and streamlines associated laboratory processes to allow us to provide real-time analytical quality data and has greatly enhanced our ability to serve as service control point for all aerospace fuels and related products for AF weapon systems worldwide.”

Dave Fisher

Laboratory Division Chief, Air Force Petroleum Agency

“The LIMS solution is connected with our production systems and materials reception at the storage. This means a fundamental advance in the quality control processes of the company, as well as a greater information exchange among systems.”

David Martínez Baños

IT Department

“Most systems are at the same level as far as functionality is concerned. STARLIMS distinguished itself by offering a very open system with great flexibility and the best mixture between available functionality and usability. Moreover, we had confidence in their project team.”
