LIMS at Inflection Point Solutions
LIMS selection and management is complex for a utility company. Ask questions like: Does one vendor offer a better product? How will the LIMS integrate into existing tracking software? Does the LIMS fit into the utility company's strategic focus? Utility companies make these choices all the time.
The most successful of them, however, often work with a consultant like Inflection Point Solutions. IPS knows LIMS, and the waste water treatment industry in general. IPS will be able to consider factors and present them to in an effective way. IPS ensures that the best and most suited LIMS is selected, even if it's not the most expensive.
LIMS Functioning
The purpose of a LIMS is to manage waste water treatment stats. Unless the company is opening for the first time, chances are there is already a system to manage laboratory information in place during the selection of a new one. We offer process control. One of the strengths of Inflection Point Solutions is that the company carefully considers the infrastructure already in place at the utility and doesn't bulldoze over the system. There's no reason to install a LIMS that's overkill nor is it productive to fix it "if it ain't broken." Inflection Point Solutions is paid to consider the best individual solution of clients, not to sell the most elaborate LIMS.
Training and Support
IPS stays once the LIMS has been installed to train and support staff learning the new system. This initial training period is then followed up by continuing staff support, including questions and additional staff trainings. IPS continues the relationship so that both IPS and the utility can benefit from the continued interaction. IPS gets word of mouth and customer appreciation and the customer get a LIMS they can get the most out of. Now that's win-win.
