In response to the prominent need of the pharmaceutical industry for COTS solutions that reduce reliance on costly, time-consuming and risky customizations, Thermo offers an extensive range of purpose-built laboratory information management systems (LIMS). These unique COTS solutions include a much higher proportion of required functionality in the base system compared with generic LIMS.
