The Real Cost

Manual Workflows Fail in Predictable Ways.

“An analyst sends a result to a supervisor by email. The supervisor is in a meeting. The email sits. Three hours later, someone calls to follow up. The approval is given verbally. Nobody records it. The audit comes and there is no documented approval record.”

This is not an exaggeration. In most laboratories, this is Tuesday afternoon.

How It Works

From Design to Optimisation. Six Steps.

01

Design

Drag-and-drop visual builder. Define sequence, conditions, roles, time limits, and sign-off requirements. No code.

02

Configure

Set conditional branching, SLA timers, escalation chains, role assignments, and e-signature requirements per stage.

03

Deploy

Test against sample data, preview the workflow, and deploy — without IT involvement. Live in minutes.

04

Execute

Tasks auto-routed to the right person. Mobile-compatible approvals. Every decision timestamped and attributed.

05

Monitor

Live dashboard with stage distribution, SLA compliance, cycle times, bottlenecks, and historical trends.

06

Optimise

AI identifies underperforming workflows, bottleneck stages, and recommends specific configuration changes.

Capabilities

Everything Your Lab Needs to Automate Workflows. Intelligently.

Nine core capabilities — no code, no IT, audit-ready from day one.

Visual Workflow Builder

Design any workflow on a drag-and-drop canvas. Define sequence, conditions, roles, and sign-off. Deploy without code.

Conditional Branching

OOS triggers extended review. Pass results follow standard approval. Path determined by data, not human routing.

Multi-Level Approvals

Sequential or parallel stages with any role combination. Mandatory approvals block; optional approvals are tracked.

SLA Timers & Escalation

Turnaround expectations per stage. Approaching SLAs trigger reminders. Breached SLAs auto-escalate.

e-Signatures

Every approval timestamped and user-attributed. FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and EU GMP Annex 11 compliant.

Role-Based Routing

Tasks routed to roles, not individuals. Unavailable approver? Auto-routes to the next qualified person.

Template Library

Pre-built templates for sample approval, report sign-off, CAPA, method validation, calibration, and document review.

AI Optimisation

AI monitors cycle times, SLA breaches, and bottleneck locations. Generates specific improvement recommendations.

Core AI

Mobile Approvals

Review and sign off from any device with full audit trail, data context, and e-signature validity.
