Quality systems rental scheme expands
Following the success of its WinLIMS Rental scheme, QSI (Quality Systems International) has made RisQ, QSI's Health and Safety compliance and Risk Assessment package available for rent.
In developing the package alongside our industrial customers, we have incorporated functionality that goes way beyond just the lab, and provides manufacturers with a whole range of tools with which to manage the wider business.
The WinLIMS Rental package contains a set of MRP (Materials Requirement Planning) tools designed to meet the needs of the small to medium manufacturing sector." All the usual MRP functions - contact management, purchasing and stock control, order processing, invoicing and quotations, raw materials management, bill of materials - are included, but there is other functionality designed specifically for the chemical and allied industries.
The WinLIMS Formulations Manager allows the ingredients for a product to be defined and automatically calculates the net cost and gross cost of the product based on the expected yield.
The Blending Control module can optimise a blend, not only in terms of product specification variables but also in terms of raw material cost, and can then use the laboratory testing data to perform blending corrections if necessary.
The Batch Traceability tool will be invaluable for those needing to establish product traceability in tightly regulated environments.
QSI's Health and Safety compliance and Risk Assessment package, aimed particularly at COSHH, is now also available for rental.
