3. Core Value
Real Time Visibility– give stakeholders the ability to access all relevant data from any web browser
Communication- improve communication between lab staff and requestors
Efficiency– improve resource utilization
Automation- automate more lab operations giving staff more time on crucial responsibilities

4. Scheduling
Auto-scheduling - grab entire sequence of tests, with operators, test workstations, and test equipment items and place on calendar
System validates availability of all resources
Allows the lab manager to schedule tests with validated resources months in advance
Re-scheduling can be as easy as drag and drop

5. Scheduling Cont.
Efficient scheduling gives lab managers more control over tests, resources and timelines
Greater efficiency + control = reclaimed time
These benefits result in reduced operating costs per test, greater operating efficiency and a better return on investment

6. Reporting and Real Time Visibility
Real time visibility into the lab means an easily accessible display of:
Status of Tests
Agreed upon completion dates vs. forecast completion dates
Slippage comments
Test Results
Attachments
Labs and their customers save time - quickly find out what is going on
Operators provide real time feedback to management and engineers

7. Project Management
QATrax is Project centric rather than Sample centric
Track all test requests associated with given project
Real Time calendar with status of Project
Monitor the progress of the test requests and underlying tests - all linked together.
Reporting, DVP&R and more are built in and easily accessible

8. Work Order Processing Manage work order process
Create work requests and complex test plans from a menu or template
Set test parameters & attach test documentation
Review all required information before test begins
Share vital information with the team
Monitor the specific status of the work order throughout the testing process
Gather metrics and measure productivity using integrated time tracking

9. Resource Management
Quickly Schedule and reschedule complex test sequences
Manage test chambers, test technicians, and equipment
Track test equipment calibrations, status, asset management
Manage test units
Assess availability for better planning
All resources are linked with specific work orders

10. Quality and Compliance
Determine Best Practices in compliance with your Quality guidelines
Document lab processes
Use software to guide users through those processes:
Consistently
Efficiently
Document adherence to procedures
Easily audit compliance

11. Metrics
Industry trends are driving test labs to use metrics to measure their performance and justify resources
Lab managers are moving toward a process of measure, analyze then adjust
It is more efficient and accurate to capture metrics in a systematic process rather than produce ad hoc metrics at management’s request
Track time for tests, operators, workstations, and equipment or billing and management metrics

12. Conclusion
Visibility – all stakeholders can have access to what happened, when it happened, the results of the test and information is provided in a single repository making it easy to manage
Improve efficiency of lab operations to get better utilization of resources
Reduce non-value add time from the process
