Managed LIMS implementation for regulated lab workflows.
Managed laboratory information systems for regulated testing teams improving sample tracking, chain-of-custody workflows, reporting turnaround, and client communication without turning implementation into a self-serve software project.
Need a clearer path? If reporting, audit trails, chain-of-custody, or legacy system constraints are slowing sample turnaround, start the fit check and the Clearline team will recommend a practical next step.
What Clearline LIMS does, in plain terms.
Clearline LIMS is for regulated labs that need traceable samples, repeatable review steps, client-ready reports, and fewer spreadsheet workarounds.
Who it serves
Environmental, industrial hygiene, materials testing, contract testing, and quality control labs that need defensible sample records and controlled reporting.
What it replaces
Disconnected spreadsheets, manual bench sheets, email-based status updates, duplicated data entry, and report formatting that depends on tribal knowledge.
How it is delivered
A managed cloud LIMS configured around your sample types, roles, reports, review path, client portal needs, and instrument data workflows.
Capabilities built for your lab's workflow.
Built around laboratory workflows that need traceable samples, controlled review steps, client-ready reports, and practical support after launch.
Client Portal
Your customers can log in to track sample status, download reports, and view COAs with your branding, reducing routine status-request emails.
Barcode Workflows
Scan samples at intake, at the bench, and at disposal. Configurable sample partitions for multi-bottle sets. Helps reduce manual transcription errors.
Assignment Worksheets
Analysts get digital work assignments with all samples for the day. Analysts can scan samples, record results, and work from controlled digital assignments.
Role-Based Access
Lab techs enter results. Quality managers verify data. Reporting managers validate completeness. Admins configure. Clear role separation supports cleaner review and reporting workflows.
Custom Report Templates
PDF reports can be generated from your lab's data and configured around your layouts, logos, and applicable reporting requirements.
Audit Trails & E-Signatures
Key workflow actions can be logged with user, timestamp, and review context. Electronic sign-off patterns and access controls support defensible quality programs; final compliance depends on your lab procedures, validation, training, and quality program.
Instrument Data Import
Instrument imports can be scoped for formats such as ICP-MS, GC-MS, UV-Vis, and related outputs, with sample and QC mapping defined during implementation.
Managed Cloud LIMS
Cloud-hosted with managed infrastructure, updates, backups, role-based access, audit controls, and export options for regulated lab operations.
Scheduled Sampling & Auto-Assignment
Recurring sample schedules with automated analyst assignment rules tailored to your lab's calendar, routes, and bench capacity.
Chain of Custody Generation
Auto-generate COC forms from client profiles with uniform formatting across all samples.
Compliance Calculations & Export
Configurable calculations and exports for lab-specific regulatory, client, and quality reporting formats.
Two-Stage Verification
Quality reviewers validate data accuracy before final reporting approval, with each sign-off captured in the audit trail.
Holding Time Alerts
Automatic tracking of preservation requirements with configurable alert thresholds.
Mobile Field Interface
Field techs view assignments, capture collection details, and record on-site parameters before samples reach the lab.
LIMS software for labs that need traceability.
Clearline LIMS adapts to the tests, reports, review steps, and client workflows your lab already depends on.
Environmental Labs
Track samples, holding times, chain of custody, analysis requests, quality review, and client-ready reports for water, wastewater, soil, air, and related testing programs.
Industrial Hygiene Labs
Manage sample batches, exposure testing workflows, analytical results, client projects, controlled reporting, and auditable handoffs from intake through final deliverables.
Materials Testing Labs
Organize specimens, test methods, result entry, verification, certificates of analysis, and customer reporting without forcing your team into generic spreadsheet workarounds.
Contract Testing Labs
Give clients secure portal access, standardize intake, assign work to analysts, track status across departments, and publish reports with repeatable review controls.
Quality Control Labs
Support specifications, reference materials, blanks, duplicates, corrective notes, audit trails, and release workflows for teams responsible for defensible data.
Specialty Lab Workflows
Build around your terminology, sample hierarchy, report templates, roles, and approval path instead of settling for a one-size-fits-most LIMS implementation.
When labs usually call us.
Clearline is strongest when your team has a defined workflow bottleneck and needs an implementation partner, not just a feature comparison.
Reports are late
Results are scattered across spreadsheets, emails, instruments, and manual formatting steps before a client-ready report can leave the lab.
COCs and worksheets are too manual
Chain-of-custody records, bench sheets, labels, COAs, or review packages require rekeying and one-person workarounds.
Your current LIMS depends on too few people
The system may still work, but key reports, exports, templates, or support steps depend on specialized internal knowledge.
Clients keep asking for status
Your team spends time answering routine status questions that could be handled through a controlled portal or repeatable communication path.
Quality pressure is coming
You need audit trails, review steps, exportable records, or validation-supporting workflows before the next client requirement, quality review, or reporting deadline.
You need a practical first step
The right move may be a scoped pilot, reporting or chain-of-custody automation, or a workflow review before a full historical migration.
From sample to report. One system.
Track key steps, handoffs, reviews, and reporting decisions in one workflow.
Sample & Track
Log samples with barcode tracking from intake through disposal. Client profiles keep sample points and analysis requirements organized.
Field Collection
Field crews collect samples and record parameters with supporting records attached to the sample history for permanent traceability.
Lab Processing
Analysts receive digital work assignments. Scan samples, run tests, enter results, or import data from instruments.
Review & Publish
Quality review and electronic sign-off. Custom report templates generate PDFs automatically. Client notified via portal when ready.

Clearline LIMS at a glance
Cloud-hosted with audit trails, controlled review, role-based access, backups, support, and exportable lab data.
Start with a practical fit check.
The first step is a short fit check to determine whether Clearline LIMS, a managed pilot, or a narrower reporting or workflow project is the right next move.
Best fit
Small and mid-sized testing labs with recurring sample, chain-of-custody, worksheet, reporting, review, portal, or managed-support needs, especially when spreadsheets or legacy systems are slowing delivery.
May not be the right fit
Labs looking for a self-serve tool, a procurement-only evaluation, validation without lab participation, or software with no implementation and support relationship may be better served by a different approach.
Bring to the first call
Your current system, sample/report bottleneck, affected outputs, timeline, urgency, and one safe example such as a sanitized COA, chain-of-custody, worksheet, export, or workflow note.
What happens after the fit check.
The form gives the Clearline team enough context to understand your workflow, timeline, and whether there is a practical Clearline path before the first call.
Implementation path for labs that need support after launch.
Clearline is positioned as a managed implementation and support relationship, not an unsupported software handoff.
Fit review
Map the lab type, current system, outputs, timeline, budget fit, and a practical first step.
Scoped pilot
Configure a bounded workflow around samples, reports, chain-of-custody, worksheets, portal, or support needs before broader migration planning.
Validation support
Support lab procedures, review controls, training, documentation, and acceptance checks without claiming software alone makes a lab compliant.
Managed support
Hosting, backups, monitoring, updates, report/workflow adjustments, and a support loop after go-live.
Security, support, and data ownership without the mystery.
Regulated labs need clear boundaries before trusting a system with sample and reporting workflows.
Managed hosting
Cloud deployment, backups, updates, monitoring, and operational support are part of the managed model instead of being left to lab staff.
Access control
Role-based access separates analyst entry, quality review, reporting, client portal access, and administrative configuration.
Exportable data
Your lab data should remain exportable and auditable. Clearline is designed for exportable records, transparent workflow logic, and auditable data handling.
Validation boundaries
Clearline supports traceable workflows and quality controls. Final compliance depends on your procedures, validation, training, and quality program.
Practical first step
For time-sensitive or complex systems, the first recommendation may be a workflow review, reporting scope, or document automation project before a full LIMS move.
Support path
After launch, issues route through a support process instead of disappearing into implementation history or one-off email threads.
