Our implementation services encompass the full process of getting 1LIMS up and running in your lab. This includes an initial assessment of your current lab processes (often via a LabCheck workshop), configuration of the LIMS to fit your specific workflows, data migration from existing systems, and integration with your instruments or software. We also provide comprehensive user training and change management support throughout the rollout. Essentially, it’s a guided, end-to-end service to ensure your LIMS is tailored to your needs and delivering value quickly.

1LIMS can be implemented and operational in as little as one month. Unlike traditional LIMS solutions that might take half a year or more to deploy, 1LIMS focuses on rapid implementation. Our team works closely with you to gather requirements, configure the system, migrate data, and train users within a condensed timeline. By the end of roughly 30 days, most clients have a fully functional, customized LIMS in place, already improving their lab’s efficiency.

Implementing 1LIMS follows a clear step-by-step strategy. We typically start with an initial assessment and requirements gathering (often through our LabCheck evaluation). Next, we develop a tailored implementation plan and configure the system (including setting up test templates, user roles, etc.). Data migration is planned and executed to bring over your historical and master data. Then, we integrate 1LIMS with any other key systems or instruments you use. Before go-live, we conduct user acceptance testing and comprehensive training sessions. Finally, we assist with go-live and provide post-implementation support to ensure everything runs smoothly.

No extensive IT expertise is required on your side to implement 1LIMS. Because 1LIMS is a cloud-based solution, you don’t need to worry about setting up servers or complex installations. Our implementation team takes care of the technical setup and configuration. Your lab’s role is mainly to collaborate with us on defining workflows and verifying that the system meets your needs. Basic computer literacy is enough for your lab staff to get trained and use 1LIMS effectively; we handle the heavy IT lifting behind the scenes.

Data migration is a key part of our implementation service. We start by assessing what data you have (such as sample records in spreadsheets or results in legacy databases). Our team will help map this existing data to the 1LIMS structure. We then use import tools or scripts to transfer the data into 1LIMS, ensuring that things like test results, specifications, and contact lists come over accurately. This process includes verification steps—after importing, we check that the data in 1LIMS matches the original and is correctly linked. By the end of migration, your important historical data is preserved and accessible within the new system.

During the implementation phase, 1LIMS provides thorough training for your team. We usually conduct administrator training (to teach key users how to configure and manage the system) as well as end-user training (so lab technicians and analysts know how to perform their daily tasks in 1LIMS). Training can be done via live workshops or interactive sessions and often includes hands-on practice with your configured system. Additionally, we offer guidance materials and are available for questions throughout the rollout. Even after go-live, our support team remains available to address any issues, and we can schedule follow-up sessions to ensure your team is fully comfortable with the LIMS.
