This publication of the Forensic Technology Center for Excellence, a program of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), discusses the use of Library Information Management Systems (LIMS) in forensic laboratories.
This publication by the Forensic Technology Center for Excellence of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) provides information on the desired and necessary functional requirements of Laboratory Management Information Systems (LIMS) in forensic science service provider (FSSP) laboratories. LIMS, computer-based systems that help manage and organize laboratory data, documentation, and processes, are used in a variety of settings, including medical, research, industrial, and forensic science laboratories, to assist with tasks such as evidence tracking, sample tracking, data management, and compliance reporting. The purpose of this document is to help those seeking to determine the appropriate specifications and checklists for functional requirements necessary for adoption by FSSP laboratories. This document provides FSSP decision-makers with an overview of functionalities that a LIMS should include and includes a section on next-generation (NG) LIMS.
