   LIMS System

NUTRICIA is one of the leading producers of food for children. The company is part of NUMICO Corporation – the owner of such brands as Bebiko, BoboVita, Milupa and Cow&Gate. The production plant in Opole has 4 state-of-the-art laboratories: chemical, microbiological, raw materials and production one. These laboratories carry out tests of several dozens of thousands of parameters per month for thousands samples of finished products, semi-finished products and raw materials. Due to the continuous expansion of the assortment of products and increasing the production output, which brings about the increased number of laboratory tests, it came as necessary to implement the comprehensive LIMS - Laboratory Information Management System – for automating and streamlining the work of the Quality Control Department.

Askom has been selected for the implementation of the LIMS System. The implementation has been realised based on SIMATIC IT Unilab laboratory software and reports modules of SIMATIC IT Report Manager, which are the components of SIMATIC IT – MES system by Siemens, for which ASKOM has, as the only company in Poland, the status of Siemens SIMATIC IT Solution Specialist. SIMATIC IT Unilab platform is in operation in more than 200 laboratories all over the world. The laboratory systems completed on this base comply with all the major standards, including: ISA95, GMP, GAMP, ISO, FDA, HACCP, 21CFR11.
