THE SITUATION

A high-volume environmental and occupational health testing laboratory processing thousands of samples weekly. Every incoming Chain of Custody required manual re-entry into their LIMS before analytical work could begin — field by field, technician by technician. The constraint wasn't instrumentation. It wasn't staff capability. It was sample login. As volume grew, the only lever was headcount — on a task that added ISO compliance exposure with every keystroke.

THE DEPLOYMENT

erblue LOMS integrated directly with the laboratory's LIMS via API push — no system credentials, no inbound access, no changes to existing architecture or workflows.

• No credentials stored at any point
• No inbound connections to the laboratory network
• Customer-controlled data exchange
• Full field-level audit log attached to every delivered record

THE RESULT

Average 70% efficiency gains in login time across processed COC volume. A 1,200+ sample Chain of Custody — digitized, validated against laboratory business rules, and delivered as LIMS-ready records — in approximately 11 minutes. The equivalent manual process would require four to six hours of technician time and carries ISO/IEC 17025 transcription exposure at every field.

THE SITUATION

Pascal Jean-Baptiste runs 5 Microns as a solo environmental consulting operation. Manual reporting and administrative follow-ups were a hard ceiling on what one person could accomplish in a day. Report assembly alone took an hour per project. At 2–3 inspections per day, a significant portion of every workday was paperwork — not fieldwork.

THE DEPLOYMENT

erblue Field Suite adopted to digitize the full inspection and reporting workflow.

THE RESULT

Report time reduced from 1 hour to 10 minutes. Inspection capacity increased from 2–3 to 3–4 per day. Administrative work practically eliminated.
