Laboratory information management for clinical testing workflows
An open-source laboratory information management system for tracking samples, tests, and results.
- Client
- Published as Felicity LIMS, an open-source product. This page does not describe a named client engagement.
- Scope
- Beak Insights published Felicity LIMS as an open-source laboratory information management system. The published scope is sample lifecycle tracking, workflow automation, and laboratory analytics. It is not a claim about a specific laboratory’s operating results.
The challenge
Clinical and medical laboratories need a consistent way to follow a sample from receipt through testing to a result. Without that path, work is split across informal tracking and systems that do not share one workflow.
Baseline: No before-state metric has been published for Felicity LIMS. This page does not estimate one.
What changed
Discovery
Describe the sample path the system has to support: receipt, testing, and a result that can be traced back to the sample.
Design
Structure the record around the sample lifecycle and the rules that move work forward, including customizable workflows.
Delivery
Publish the system as open-source software laboratories can deploy, rather than as a one-client implementation story.
Architecture and workflow
The relevant flow is the sample path: receive the sample, perform the configured work, and record a traceable result.
Technology named in the published description: Open-source laboratory information management system.
Outcomes
The published result is the system itself: Felicity LIMS tracks the sample lifecycle from receipt to final results and supports customizable laboratory workflows. No client outcome metric, time saving, or quality percentage has been published, so none is stated here.
Deliverables
- Open-source laboratory information management system
- Sample lifecycle tracking from receipt to final results
- Customizable workflows
- Laboratory analytics on the information the system holds
What made the difference
The published work is specific: a laboratory record, an instrument connection, or a SQL view. It is not a general claim that operations were transformed.
