Lab Operations under Control

ISO 17025 Compliance Software Without the Enterprise Overhead

Replace spreadsheets, disconnected tools, and last-minute audit scramble with one system for document control, training records, calibrations, CAPAs, and audit readiness.

The labs that fail audits aren't missing data. They're missing a system.

Most labs already have the data.

  • Training records exist. But they are hidden in three different spreadsheets on a shared drive.
  • SOPs exist. But no one knows if they are reading the most current PDF or a copy saved locally.
  • Calibration dates exist. But they are on stickers stuck to the side of pipettes and balances.
  • Corrective actions exist. But they are buried in email threads and meeting minutes.

The problem is control.

To answer simple questions, someone has to:

  • Open spreadsheets and verify when a training was signed.
  • Search folders to check if the SOP is actually the approved version.
  • Check binders to find the latest calibration certificate.
  • Ask coworkers if the CAPA was actually closed.
  • Hope that nothing was missed or misplaced.

That is where audits get risky.

LabMODO gives you one place to know what is complete, overdue, missing, or at risk right now.

Know Your Compliance Status in 10 Seconds

Instead of hunting for answers across five different systems or spreadsheets, your team opens one dashboard. This morning, one lab manager opened LabMODO and saw:

SOPs pending annual review

5 Due

Under the hood

Five Modules built for ISO 17025 Compliance

1. Version & SOP Document Control

Toss the paper binders and local Word files. Keep SOPs in a secure, digital QMS with full revision histories, automatic numbering, review reminders, and change-log tracking.

  • Audit-ready histories: Every change includes version notes, author details, and approval timestamps.
  • Digital approvals: Route documents for QA signatures directly inside the platform.
  • One source of truth: Analysts always view the active, approved version. Older copies are archived automatically.

2. Training & Competency Records

Ensure only qualified analysts run your testing methods. Link SOPs directly to training courses and competency checklists to track analyst qualifications in real-time.

  • Auto-retraining triggers: Updating an SOP flags everyone trained on it to read and acknowledge the new revision.
  • Method sign-offs: Document hands-on competence with evaluator digital signatures and evidence uploads.
  • Refresher tracking: Set automated reminders for recurring trainings (e.g. safety reviews or annual competencies).

3. Calibration & Maintenance Schedules

Never let a scale, balance, or pipette slip out of calibration. Track equipment schedules, log maintenance, and store calibration certificates in one searchable ledger.

  • Calendar schedules: View upcoming service tasks and assign them to external vendors or internal technicians.
  • Alerts & notifications: Receive email warnings before equipment goes out of service.
  • Asset profiles: Store user manuals, service contracts, and historical calibration certificates in one place.

4. CAPA & Deviation Management

When quality events occur, resolve them using a structured process. Log deviations, complete root cause analyses, assign corrective actions, and track verification of effectiveness.

  • Structured workflows: Record quality incidents immediately, complete with initial assessments and containment steps.
  • Task owners: Assign action items to team members with due dates and automatic notifications.
  • Evidence attachments: Attach photos, PDFs, or data logs to document resolution and prove closure to auditors.

5. Real-Time Audit Readiness

Stop scrambling in the weeks leading up to an audit. LabMODO keeps your compliance materials structured and accessible so you can provide answers to auditors in seconds.
