The SLIM Solution from H&A Scientific.
Stability Laboratory Information Manager
A Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) should make your job easier, not harder. Enter H&A Scientific’s SLIM (Stability Lab Information Manager). SLIM was developed and validated to be a complete stability study management software. SLIM has the rich feature set required to meet the challenges today’s Lab Supervisors and Stability Managers face on a daily basis. SLIM’s fast, intuitive user interface and exceptional reliability provide a simple, seamless operation, allowing it to manage your company’s drug stability program with optimal efficiency.
Operating under the principle that better software equals better science, H&A’s experienced chemists and scientists have worked with multiple LIMS and spent over 30 years perfecting SLIM. Fine-tuned with extensive customer feedback and backed by world-class partner support, the SLIM Software Suite is the simple, yet powerful stability study management software solution your company needs.
SLIM includes two additional software programs, SLIMStat and SLIM Report Generator (SRG). SLIMStat is an industry favorite used for statistical shelf life analysis. SLIM Report Generator simplifies the presentation of final data for regulatory submission. SLIM’s off-the-shelf scalability, contrary to most full LIMS, allows it to remain affordable for businesses of all sizes, with installation, on-site or remote validation, training, and support provided by H&A Scientific. SLIMStat can also be purchased as a stand-alone application. All of our products are 21 CFR Part 11 compliant and fully validated per FDA’s GxP and GAMP5 guidelines.
